Louis Schweitzer was a Russian-born United States paper industrialist and philanthropist. He was an executive at the family paper company until its sale. He purchased the U.S. radio station WBAI from Theodore Deglin for $34,000 in 1957. An idealist, eccentric, and long-time radio enthusiast, Schweitzer ran the station as a personal hobby and an artistic endeavour, broadcasting the latest in music, politics, and ideas. Schweitzer viewed radio as an art form, but became increasingly disillusioned
