Enchanting People of New Mexico - Glenn Strange
from The Fresh Chile Company Podcast · host Michael Swickard, Ph.D.
In Southern New Mexico, up on the Sacramento Mountains Southeastern slope is a small town or rather a hamlet called Weed, New Mexico. Founded in 1884, I think of it when I catch reruns of the television series Gunsmoke. Weed today has less than a hundred people. And there isn’t a monument to Gunsmoke, the twenty-year television series starring James Arness as Marshal Matt Dillion but there is in a connection to the small hamlet of Weed, New Mexico. It is Glenn Strange who played Sam, the Bartender on Gunsmoke and was born in Weed, New Mexico in 1899 when it was a territory rather than a state.Love this Podcast?
