Mike Wallace retires from "60 Minutes," but not really

A young Mike Wallace appeared as a guest on the radio quiz show "Information Please" on this date in 1939.  That seems to be his first major radio exposure.  Here's a look back at his career (no mention of "Information Please," however) from when Wallace (semi-)retired in 2006.  He seems to be the only correspondent in recent memory who didn't either pass away on-the-job, or pass away 10 minutes after retiring.
