Jeff Majer has a conversation with Hugh Campbell the owner and operator of the John Marshall Barber Shop on Richmond’s Shockoe Hill. Â The barber shop opened in 1929 on the same day that the stock market crashed that caused the great depression. Â Campbell has been cutting hair t the shop for almost 50 years and has hosted many notables including Cab Calloway, George Bush, Richard Nixon, Elvis, Bruce Willis and many more.Â
CORRECTION: Â I say in this episode Shockoe Bottom yet the John Marshall is clearly on Shockoe Hill. Â My bad.
