The Nebraska Hall of Fame: Robert W. Furnas

Discussing another Nebraska Hall of Fame honoree, we learn about Robert W. Furnas, Nebraska's second governor, and the many institutions he helped set in motion in Nebraska.

Special thanks to NE Hall of Fame Commission Chair Sara Crook.

He went on to earn journalism and law degrees from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, served as an officer in the U.S. Army, and has worked for radio and television stations across the United States. He is a big advocate for community media and loves being a part of the local fabric of NPR. He also has a cat, Pickles.
