Prison Officer Podcast 24: History of the Leavenworth Prisons - Interview w/Ken LaMaster
In this episode, I talk with a friend, former co-worker, and Leavenworth Historian/Author - Ken LaMaster. Ken retired after 31 years in the Correctional field which included working at the US Disciplinary Barracks, Kansas State Penitentiary, and the United States Penitentiary Leavenworth. I have always enjoyed listening to Ken's stories and research, and I know you will enjoy hearing about his passion for Leavenworth's history also. He is the author of Leavenworth Seven: The Deadly 1931 Prison Break and U.S Penitentiary Leavenworth - Images of America. He has also worked with several TV shows to include, History Detectives, The Spirit of Hatred and Vengeance on PBS, and Chicago PD as well as others.
