Chicago's Division Street Bridge has been renamed for writer and historian Studs Terkel.
From a piece in the Chicago Sun-Times...
Terkel, who captured the essence of Chicago in the pages of his best-selling oral histories, died in 2008. His work chronicled the lives of common people and celebrities alike.
The Division Street Bridge was first named for Terkel 20 years ago. The street's name is reflected in the title of his first book of oral history, published in 1966. The book is called "Division Street: America."
