English: Rudolf Jaromir Pšenka, Czech author and playwright, editor of the Chicago Daily Svornost (Concord) from 1909 until his death in 1939. He was also co-founder of the Czech-American News Agency. A veteran of the French Foreign Legion, he wrote several books about his experiences. Pšenka was described as a "Czech-American Renaissance Man" in Malynn Sternstein's book Czechs of Chicagoland. In May 1911 he gave two addresses at the funeral of 5-year-old Elsie Paroubek, whose disappearance was the subject of great public attention and whose murder has never been solved.
