I wonder what happened to Mitchell Harding?

[substitute]

He was one of the original hosts of the Hour 25 sf radio program I listened to growing up, and did news on KPFK also. Later he was on KCRW for years and years. He had a deep comforting voice, and seemed really smart and nice, and all knowing. Apparently he did a health radio show for a while with Dr. Gershon Lesser, until 2000 or so. I wonder if he's still alive? LARadio.com doesn't know where he is, and they know where everyone in radio went.

I hope he didn't die without recognition. I searched in vain for an obit.

I knew Mitchell Harding in the early sixties. His real name is Loring Ware. You might be able to find him, or info about him, under that name.

Thanks very much, and thanks for being a founding member of KPFK. That station was a big part of my education.

That's a wonderful clip. Thanks so much for providing it.

Yes, I had responded before and you had sent me info; I just spaced out and didn't realize it was the same person being helpful yet again.
