PROGRESSIONS Page 3 International Perspectives Seminar Endowed by the Warfield Family The Illinois Agricultural Leadership Foundation (IALF) has received an endowment from Ron and Melanie Warfield of Gibson City, Illinois, to fund a seminar in the two-year Illinois Agricultural Lead- ership Program. The “Ron and Melanie Warfield International Perspectives Seminar” will focus on issues relating to the global nature of agriculture and serve to in- crease understanding between peoples of different countries. Primarily, the seminar will address is- sues related to the countries that will be visited by participants during the International Study Seminar in the second year of the program. “Melanie and I met while individually living six Melanie and Ron Warfield months with farm families in Nepal through the 4-H IFYE program,” Warfield said. “Since then, we have served, worked, studied and traveled extensively interna- tionally, which instilled in us the value of having leaders who understand the global nature of food production and distribution. We are very supportive of the work of the IALF and believe in its mission of developing knowl- edgeable and effective leaders to be policy and decision makers for agriculture.” Ron continued to pursue his interest in international food and agriculture in his graduate studies and his Mas- ter’s thesis. In part, his international experience continued with: 14 months in Korea as an Army Officer; multiple trips to Brazil to do a feasibility study on soybean processing; a study exchange visiting Russian State Farms; trade missions with AFBF to Brazil, Argentina, China, Hong Kong, Thailand, and Cuba; chairing AFBF’S Trade Advisory Committee; chairing AFBF Trade Committee to Doha Trade Talks; and several personal trips to Africa to visit his son and family. On a separate trade mission trip, Melanie met with Cuban leader Fidel Castro. “All of these experiences have reinforced the need for agricultural leaders to understand the intertwined global world in which we live and the importance of the global marketplace for U.S. agriculture,” said Warfield. Ron was elected as the 13th President of the Illinois Farm Bureau and served as full-time executive officer from 1993 to 2003. He was president of the companies that make up COUNTRY Insurance and Financial Ser- vices, Illinois Agricultural Service Company, AgriVisor Services, Inc., and the IAA Foundation. He also served on the Coordinating Committee of GROWMARK, Inc. He was elected in January 1996 to the Board of Directors of the American Farm Bureau Federation and was appointed to the AFBF Board Executive Committee in January 2000. Ron was a member of the first class to graduate from the Illinois Agricultural Leadership Program, and was named a Master Farmer in 1992 by Prairie Farmer magazine. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in agricultural economics from the University of Illinois, where he was also an instructor, and has served on the University’s Ag Alumni Board. “The IALF is extremely grateful to Melanie and Ron for their devotion to our leadership program and generos- ity to the Foundation,” said IALF President & CEO Don Norton. “Their gift will ensure that we are able to con- tinue to deliver high quality leadership training with an international perspective.” Page 4 Fall 2014 T ORCH OF L EADERSHIP It was a grand celebration when 170 people attended the inaugural “Torch of Leadership” award banquet to celebrate the careers of four distinguished ag- ricultural leaders.

    Volume 4, Number 8, August 1, 2016 by Larry A. Quinn RINGSIDE: EYEWITNESS TO HISTORY – For more than 50 years, Jerry Lackey (Emeritus member, San Angelo, TX) has worked as an agricultural journalist and farm broadcaster. A newly published photo documentary book shows many of the Presidents, Governors, Congressmen and key agricultural leaders who Jerry met and interviewed from his “ringside” position as a journalist. “Writing one’s life story never appealed to me,” Jerry said. However, it occurred to him that the only way he was privileged to interview and/or take pictures of the public figures was because of his chosen field of journalism. Dee Lackey, Jerry’s wife, “touted this project persistently for some time,” and contributed her editing skills to completing the book. Jerry purchased his first camera, a Kodak Brownie Starflash, and a film processing kit from the Sears Roebuck catalog using some of his grandmother’s “egg money.” The 80‐page book is filled with images and identifying cutlines that will take the reader back to the agricultural history that Jerry covered with his camera lens, reporter’s pad, microphone and video camera. Reared in the Texas Hill Country, Jerry worked for state and national publications as well as pursuing a parallel career in television with Texas Agriculture Television Network and radio broadcasting with Voice of Southwest Agriculture Network. He is agricultural editor emeritus for the San Angelo Standard‐Times where he is best known for his Windmill Country columns, which have been published by that newspaper for more than 25 years. Jerry’s numerous honors include the Oscar in Agriculture Award, Excellence in Agricultural Journalism Award, Shepherd’s Voice Award and Man of the Year in Texas Agriculture Award.

    Volume 8, Number 12, December 9, 2020 by Larry A. Quinn SAMUELSON MARKS 60-YEAR ON-AIR CAREER AT WGN RADIO — As Orion Samuelson (WGN, Chicago, Illinois) retires at the end of December, he will set a record for the longest on-air tenure of a broadcaster at the same station. “In 1960, I arrived at WGN, where I have been ever since, doing daily radio and adding the weekly television show syndicated on TV stations across the country,” Samuelson said. “During my career, I have interviewed 23 Secretaries of Agriculture, four of them were ‘acting’ Secretaries. I traveled with several of them, both internationally and domestically. My travels took me to 44 countries, including 10 times to China and four times to Russia. I traveled with Secretary Dan Glickman in my only trip around-the world. Don’t ask me to name my favorite Agriculture Secretary because I respected and enjoyed them all. “I also had the opportunity to interview eight Presidents, and I would share this story about my experience with John F. Kennedy. While I was working in Green Bay, Wisconsin, in 1960, prior to moving to Chicago, then-Senator John F. Kennedy was running against Richard Nixon. Senator Kennedy made a campaign stop in Green Bay. I attended his briefing at a news conference. During the conference, I asked two questions about dairy policy. “As the conference ended, one of his aides approached me and asked if I would have a few minutes to talk to the Senator about dairy legislation. So, I sat with Senator Kennedy at the hotel bar, sipping a Scotch, and we discussed dairy farming, because they did little of that in Massachusetts.

This is part of our Oral History of Illinois Agriculture Project that we are partnering with the Illinois State Museum, and from the beginning, from the inception of our plan, we’ve been looking forward to talk to the voice of agriculture in the Midwest, and probably—I would venture to say, Orion, that you’re the most recognizable voice of agriculture in the United States. Samuelson: Well, I’ve been doing it so long. You know, I’ve been at this business for fifty-six years, so I guess over that time period, a lot of people dialing the dial come across me.
