Memphis Moment: Nash Buckingham

By Steve Pike

Memphis, TN – Nash Buckingham is one of the Mid-South's great writers who is often overlooked. He worked for the Commercial Appeal as a sports writer for a while, but found the demands of a daily publication too hectic. Instead, he began writing for Field and Stream, where he eventually became the associate editor. He worked for stronger conservation laws that would protect the natural world he loved.

Memphis Moments is co-produced by the Pink Palace Family of Museums (http://www.memphismuseums.org) and WKNO-FM and airs on Tuesdays and Thursdays during All Things Considered on the WKNO Stations.
