Description
Between 1935 and 1940 roughly 2.5 million people migrated leading to high rates of poverty and unemployment as well as widespread monetary failures of banks and businesses. The Dust Bowl of the 1930s in the western United States was caused by a combination of severe drought, excessive plowing of the topsoil, and strong persistent winds that resulted in massive dust storms across the Dust Bowl states.
Dr. Dick Fairley: PhD in Computer Science and Systems Engineering from UCLA. He worked as an engineer, university professor, consultant, & as a jazz disk jockey at KRCC.
