Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? And what religion does it derive from? KAWC's Lou Gum interviews Larry Tye, author of Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero, about the great American icon of truth and justice...(originally aired 10/30/13).

This piece was featured on October 30th's Arizona Edition, which can be found in the related content section below.

Lou grew up in Tucson and has a long family history in the state of Arizona. He began his public radio career in 1988 at KNAU in Flagstaff as a classical music DJ and has been hooked on public radio since, transitioning to news after trying his hand at several other careers in publishing and commercial broadcasting. Lou has a degree in American Studies from Arizona State University and was KAWC's Morning Edition host for two and half years before becoming News and Operations Director.
