Historical Note

Alan Moyer was a journalist in Iowa, Wisconsin, Kansas, and Arizona. He was born in 1928 and he graduated from the University of Iowa in Journalism. He was managing editor for Phoenix Newspapers for 16 years, and he was a managing/executive editor for the "Wichita Eagle and Beacon" for ten years. His interest in sports news led him to bring professional baseball back to Wichita as president and part-owner of the Aeros. He was with the Associated Press Managing Editor's Association and he served on the board for six years. He was also a juror for the Pulitzer Prize competition.
