...tall, ruggedly handsome frontiersman who had earned his journalistic spurs on the brassy Denver Post. He soon became an ornament on William Randolph Hearst's New York American, along with Damon Runyon and Ring Lardner.

Perhaps these are the qualities which make his regular appearances on the Tomorrow Show the prize of late night television.
