This is our first of three special edition episodes looking back at the life and career of Bill Moyers. He was a legendary journalist who worked for PBS for many years. As a young man one of the earliest documentaries I owned was one he did on Hitler and Roosevelt comparing their life stories. He did amazing work.
He is no stranger to our broadcast either, having appeared in several of our episodes when we were chronicling the years of Lyndon B. Johnson. He served as an aide to the former President during most of his years as President.
In this episode we will look back at his journalism career mostly and hear him talk about many of the issues gripping the nation. Then in our next two episodes we will hear him on the phone with President Johnson. He was one of Johnson's few aides that he completely trusted. Bill Moyers was like family to the President. As you will see he seemed to be everywhere from the Great Society, to Civil Rights, to the War in Vietnam.
