Gather around the Radio with Fran Striker: Author of the Lone Ranger and More

By Jolene Hawkins

Let's go back to the days of Radio programs. How wonderful it was that the family would sit near the radio and listen to the story, the sound effects adding to the imagination. I grew up in the age of television, but my parents would always talk about the shows, so I got cassettes of the "old-time radio shows" to listen to. I also got hooked on them; they took me to a place in my mind where I made the scene come alive as I heard the words and sounds from the speakers. Some of my favorite radio shows were .... The Lone Ranger, The Green Hornet, Sgt. Preston of the Yukon, and others. Imagine my delight when I moved up to Western New York and found out that the Creator of the series was from this area!! I volunteered at a Church Camp, and lo and behold, I later found out that was where he lived part-time and created some of the stories. Who am I talking about? Fran Striker~ and so the story begins.
