The Fascinating Life & Tragic Death of SoCal Icon - Huell Howser | Mini Documentary 2022

Enjoy my mini documentary about the life of PBS icon, Huell Howser.

With popular shows that made him a Southern California staple as California's Gold, Videolog, Visiting & Road Trip with Huell Howser, he was a regular to look forward to on Sunday nights on public television.

Born in Tennessee; Huell became a Marine, then worked for the University of Tennessee's local television network before making the move to Hollywood in 1981. He lived in William Frawley's (Fred Mertz from "I Love Lucy") and was a frequent regular at Pink's Hot Dogs.

His aggressive, but friendly and approachable interviewing techniques set him apart from the rest...and is seen by many as what we know as the modern social media vlogger. He was recognizable and made many friends along with way. He eventually purchased homes in Palm Springs, Twentynine Palms and Newberry Springs.

He retired in 2012, and sadly passed away a year later in 2013.

This video documentary celebrates the life and history of SoCal icon: Huell Howser.
