Don Raines Jr. - About two remarkable Swedes in Dallas and one letter to Sweden
I met with Don Raines, Senior Planner in the city of Dallas, Texas, to talk about two remarkable Swedes that helped not only shape the city itself - but left iconic marks on the entire country.
Join me to hear Don speak about his love for Dallas, about Carl Wickman, the Swedish immigrant who founded the iconic Greyhound Buses, and about John Eric Johnson, a second-generation Swede who became three times elected mayor of Dallas right after the Kennedy assassination and who was the man behind the key development of both Texas Instruments and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
