Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer: the story behind the story

Have you ever wondered where the inspiration comes from for a certain story?  Have you ever wondered what a persons life was like before he got his first big break that launched his writing career?

Are you a sucker for sad stories that have happy endings?

If so, you might be interested in the story of how one of our most beloved Christmas story came to be.
