From an obit on denverpost.com by Kyle Newman headlined “Dusty Saunders, Denver journalism icon who was the Rocky Mountain News ‘north star;’ dies at 90”:

Walter “Dusty” Saunders, who worked for the Rocky Mountain News for more than a half-century while establishing himself as one of the country’s top entertainment critics, died Sunday.

He leaves behind a legacy as a Denver journalism icon, having written more stories for the Rocky than any other columnist in the paper’s 149-year history.
