Win Stracke
Winfred "Win" J. Stracke (February 20, 1908 – June 29, 1991) was an American folk musician and co-founder of the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago, Illinois. Stracke was a Chicago fixture in music, theater, and television in the 1940s and was known for his booming bass voice. Nationally he was known as ''Uncle Win'' to viewers of his nationally syndicated children's television show on NBC until it was canceled in the wake of the 1950s blacklist.
==Early life==
Stracke was born in Lorraine, Kansas but grew up in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood, and had ties to the area his entire life. He was the son of German immigrants and his father was a preacher. He discovered his singing talent while still in high school. Stracke had some operatic training, but his interests in the labor movement and American frontier history would draw him towards American folk music. He began his folk singing career in Chicago in 1931, when WLS hired him as a bass singer on their ''National Barn Dance'' program. He appeared with the Cumberland Ridge Runners and Smoky Mountain Singers.〔(Old Town School history )〕
