The Life of Bill Baggs

With keen intellect and sparkling wit, Bill Baggs seemed to be in the right place at the right time. From bombardier in World War II to news reporter, then accidental diplomat, Baggs used his daily column as a bully pulpit for social justice and wielded his pen like a scalpel to reveal the truth.

The Miami News earned three Pulitzer Prizes under his watch, and then in 1969, he left this world suddenly. Author Amy Paige Condon retraces his steps in the process of writing the first biography of this influential newspaper editor.
