known as Paul Harvey, was a conservative American radio broadcaster
for the ABC Radio Networks. He broadcast News and Comment on

His father was a Tulsa police officer who was killed in the line of
duty when Harvey was 3, and Harvey's mother raised him and his sister.
(He dropped his last name for professional reasons in the 1940s.
"Ethnic names were not very popular," he once explained. Besides,
"no one could spell it.") -LATimes
