In the summer of 1970, Alan Bernstein "fell in love with the river," as he puts it, and unwittingly spawned a career on it that has lasted more than 50 years. The then-18-year-old had a job working for the summer on the Delta Queen steamboat, part-time in the dining room and part-time as a deckhand. Bernstein, now 71, still uses words like "magical" to describe the experience. He would have kept his job on the boat, he said, if his father hadn't insisted on college. After college, his dad, Ben Bernstein, had other ideas. |
