This is "A Heartstone Book." Earl Kemp Long (August 26, 1895 - September 5, 1960) was an American politician and the 45th Governor of Louisiana, serving three non-consecutive terms. Long, known as "Uncle Earl," connected with voters through his folksy demeanor and colorful oratory. He departed from other southern politicians of his time by promoting a progressive agenda, including expanding school lunch programs, teacher pay, public works projects, and minority voting rights. His sometimes erratic behavior - including a liaison with New Orleans stripper Blaze Starr - appeared to be of minimal consequence to his electoral success. Long served as governor from 1939 to 1940, 1948 to 1952, and 1956 to 1960. He was nominated in the summer of 1960 to the United States House of Representatives for Louisiana's 8th congressional district, since disbanded because of demographic changes, but he died before he could take office. He was also elected as lieutenant governor and served from 1936 to 1939. Trying to keep a close hand in state government, Long failed in three other bids to be elected lieutenant governor, 1932, 1944, and 1959.
