"Doc" Hawley
"Doc" Hawley is a river pilot who specializes in steam driven sternwheelers. For over 30 years, "Doc" has captained the Steamboat NATCHEZ up and down the Mississippi River past New Orleans. After decades of working on the NATCHEZ, "Doc" has accumulated an arsenal of entertaining stories about the river and the riverboat. He shares a few of these anecdotes and describes what it takes to become a riverboat pilot. An accomplished calliope player, "Doc" also tells us why no calliope has ever been in tune.
