In 1944 a survey showed that he had the fifth largest radio audience of any commentator in Greater New York. In addition to his popular broadcasts, Dr. Kingdon lectures and writes on political and economic issues. THAT MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE was his latest outstanding best seller. He has pursued various public-spirited professions in his adult life. He resigned from the ministry to become president of the University of Newark. In this scholastic atmosphere Kingdon began his intensive study of national and international affairs, and finally gave up his presidency to devote himself to informing the people about the facts he made it his business to learn. Out of this quest for fact has come AN UNCOMMON MAN: Henry Wallace and 60 Million Jobs. Seller Inventory # 002138
