Biographical note

Herbert Plambeck (1908-2001) was born February 29, 1908 and raised in Scott County, Iowa. He graduated from Iowa State University with a major in agriculture (1936). He began his professional career as a USDA College (University) County Extension employee, but in 1935 he became Farm Editor for the Davenport (Iowa) Times- Democrat. In 1936, he was named Farm Director for WHO-Radio in Des Moines, a position he held until 1970. Plambeck was then appointed assistant to the U.S. Secretary for Agriculture where he focused on public affairs.

Plambeck was a member of the U.S. Agricultural Delegation to the Soviet Union in 1955, where he made the first farm broadcast report from Russia. He repeated this feat when he delivered the first farm broadcast from China in 1976. He founded the National Plowing Matches and was member of the Board of Directors of the National Agricultural Hall of Fame.

Plambeck held offices in a number of organizations, such as the National Association of Radio and Television Farm Broadcasters, District and Local Kiwanis, and the Iowa Easter Seal Society. He also received over eighty international, national, and state honors, including the Herbert Hoover Citizenship Award, the National Soil Conservation Award, and the Dupont Foundation Radio Award.

Plambeck is the author of over ten books and booklets, including “Heritage of Community Service,” “Iowa Farm Safety in the 20th Century,” “Iowa’s Heritage of Pioneer Family Farms,” “This is Herb” with Never a Dull Moment, and The Way It Was. He died January 15, 2001.
