It Is not an understatement to label Rich Moreno as a “Nevada history legend.” The former publisher of Nevada Magazine based in Carson City, he is the author of fourteen books, including Frontier Fake News: Nevada’s Sagebrush Hoaxsters and Humorists for the University of Nevada Press and The Roadside History of Nevada for Mountain Press. His other works include A Short History of Reno, Nevada Curiosities, Roadside History of Nevada, and the Nevada Backyard Traveler series.
For more than three decades, he has written a weekly history/ travel column that appears in the Lahontan Valley News and the Nevada Appeal.
Rich was awarded the Nevada Writers Hall of Fame Silver Pen Award in 2007.
The “CC and JT Amateur Hour” is honored to welcome Rich to our podcast as he talks about what inspires him to write about Nevada, the authors he respects (notably Robert Laxalt), and his next book, Historic Reno Influencers: Eleven Who Helped Define the Biggest Little City in the World.
You can find Rich on his blog, along with his Instagram and Facebook.
