Darkest hours

Article Abstract:

Ed Schwartz once reigned as the king of Chicago late-night radio, pioneering a show based on intimacy and helping others, however changing tastes and ill health brought him to the point at which he himself needed help. Schwartz, who launched one of the city's largest food drives and became an unlikely local celebrity through his startling generosity, on and off air, was diagnosed with renal failure and was given two weeks to live without treatment.
