Uncommon Common Man tells the story of M.H. "Bill" Simmons, co-founder of Pluss Poultry, which became Simmons Foods, one of the United States' leading producers of chicken and pet food. A continual innovator and industry leader, Simmons made lasting contributions to the Food Revolution of the 1950s and early 1960s. He was a key promoter of U.S. poultry exports, and he played a leading role in a trade dispute, remembered as the Chicken War, between the United States and the European Economic Union. His story sheds light on the development of the American poultry industry and on the histories of Northwest Arkansas and the city of Siloam Springs.
