Show Notes
Pioneer Chicken was the king of Los Angeles, a $100 million food chain with 300 locations, until it all but disappeared. The reason? H.R. Kaufman, the Howard Hughes-like founder who guided the company’s growth until he too disappeared! This is the story of Pioneer Chicken and the never before told Mystery of H.R. Kaufman.
