Ralph Waldo "Petey" Greene, Jr., 1967
Washingtonian Petey Greene, Jr., overcame drug addiction and incarceration to become one of the most well-known and beloved radio and TV personalities. His frank and often caustic commentary offended some, but he developed a large and devoted following. His broadcasts during the 1968 riots were said to help bring an end to the violence. |
