Henry Coleman Crowell was born in 1897 in Chicago. He grew up to serve in the Navy in World War One. Afterward, he went on to become vice chairman of the Quaker Oats Company, which was started by his father. Eventually, God called Mr. Crowell into his service at Moody Bible Institute. And there Henry worked as vice president and general manager in a career that spanned more than 40 years. Henry Crowell was a forward looking visionary. He helped launch Moody Science Films as well as Moody Aviation. Both represented cutting edge technologies at the time. But we love Henry Crowell for still another reason. He was a huge influence and a driving factor in the launch and growth of a new thing called Moody Radio. Though we went home to be with the Lord in 1965, his impact is still being felt today. To the glory of God, Henry Coleman Crowell is a name you should know.
