Autorenporträt

Larry Jorgensen first became fascinated with Michigan's Upper Peninsula and its unique history while writing and reporting for television news in Green Bay. However, his journey into that world of news had begun much earlier in northern Wisconsin where he worked during high school for the weekly newspaper in Eagle River. Later he was employed by a newspaper publisher in Milwaukee, and then on to radio and television news in Texas and Louisiana, along with wire service and freelance assignments. During all those years he looked forward to return visits to the Keweenaw Peninsula. During one of those visits, Larry discovered the tale of the wreck of the City of Bangor. Learning of that little-known event resulted in his decision to create this written account, which he hopes would share the story of one of Lake Superior's most unusual shipwrecks.
