Biography
When Richard Louis Evans was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on March 23, 1906, there was little to indicate the kind of positive impact he would have in the world. His father was the General Manager of Deseret News, the largest and most influential newspaper in the Intermountain West, but following a streetcar accident, he died when Richard was only ten weeks old. The loss of income was a severe challenge for Richard’s mother and her nine children, and to keep food on the table, even Richard, the youngest, had multiple jobs beginning with his pre-teen years.
Although always busy with employment, Richard excelled academically. His writing skills became apparent and he served as the Editor of his high school newspaper. His speaking skills also evolved and he won the School Debate Championship that earned him a full scholarship to attend the University of Utah. After two years as a university student and a summer of hard work selling woolen goods to lumberjacks in the Northwest, he had earned enough money to serve a full-time proselyting mission in Great Britain for the LDS Church.
