Living a Dream – A Communicator’s Story
by Robert E. A. Lee
About This New Memoir
Bob Lee’s adventures over 80 years span oceans and continents and include stories of abundant personal and professional challenges. In My Wings at Sunset he shares his discoveries and feelings as a World War II Navy pilot, musician, broadcaster, film producer, writer and communication executive.
In addition to revealing his pioneering accomplishments, he opens his soul to his private life as husband, father, grandfather, son and brother. As a Christian layman, he served for many years supervising news, broadcasting and publishing units for U.S. Lutherans and tells stories of encounters at home and abroad while reporting news and producing and reviewing films. On these pages he also offers insights into the faith and values that have guided his life.
While sharing lively experiences and seasoned wisdom, Lee also includes poetic verse as a specialized communication medium. He allows the metaphor of flight to extend beyond the military to include a heavy burden of inter-continental travel; at the same time the image of sunset reflects the author’s concluding spiritual summary of his life. His mantra of gratitude repeatedly echoes through the chapters.
