Unremembered History
Ken Zurski
History has a way of remembering and forgetting certain people and events. Some may have chosen this path to anonymity and others may have simply been part of a fleeting fame, once recognized for their importance and influence, now lost to time. Ken has always been fascinated by these lesser-known personalities, the so-called other people, or obscure figures whose contributions to our past have been disregarded, neglected or simply put out of mind. These are the stories he wants to tell. The stories of the unremembered..
Lockport native Ken Zurski is a longtime broadcaster and author of The Wreck of the Columbia.
