History Hounds Lecture: Triumph & Tragedy: John DeLorean & the GTO

Live Zoom Lecture  

Discover the triumphs and failures of auto executive John DeLorean, who zoomed up the ranks at General Motors through successful cars such as the Pontiac GTO. The failure of his DeLorean Motor Company ensnared him in charges for tax evasion, loan fraud, and drug use. Although acquitted, he was financially ruined.
