Reprise | Robert Traylor: Former AR State Rep, Businessman, Artist

Up in Your Business with Kerry McCoy

This week on Up in Your Business I had the pleasure of interviewing (to quote from the Dos Equis ad campaign) “the most interesting man in the world,” Mr. Bob Traylor. If you are from North Little Rock, you will know exactly who and what I am talking about. My friend, Bob, is a 96-year-old man who sired 7 children, held the office of Arkansas state representative in 1971, made a living in real estate, smuggled gems out of Columbia, gave up alcohol in his 50’s and proudly became an early advocate of the healing powers of marijuana, all while exploring his talent for painting, discovering his love of art, and showing his works at the Arkansas Art Center’s Delta Exhibition. Listen to this interesting man recount his colorful life as part of Arkansas history.
