Ray Mungo

Ray Mungo

Raymond Mungo (born 1946) is the author, co-author, or editor of more than a dozen books. He writes about business, economics, and financial matters as well as cultural issues. In the 1960s, he attended Boston University, where he served as editor-in-chief of the Boston University News in 1966-67, and where he was a student leader who spearheaded demonstrations against the Vietnam war.

Mungo was a cofounder of Liberation News Service (LNS) with Marshall Bloom and Verandah Porche. LNS split off from College Press Service (CPS) in a political dispute. The founding event was a tumultuous meeting not far from the offices of CPS on Church Street in Washington, D.C. The event is described by Mungo in his book "Famous Long Ago."
