Ep 4: Rebuilding Lives and Redesigning Rapid City

SDPB

In the days, weeks and years after the 1972 Rapid City flood, lives change, memories linger and Rapid City rebuilds. Mayor Don Barnett, in office during the flood, recounts June 9, 1972, and the important decisions made during the following few days to change the face of the city. Flood survivors share memories of the flood five decades later.

Seth supervises SDPB's beat reporters and newscast team. He works at SDPB's Black Hills Studio in Rapid City.
Larry, although retired as Assistant General Manager for SDPB, continues to write, host, and do media production and voice work for SDPB.
