His grandfather John Muster (1830-1887) was a Civl War veteran, a Swiss national who came to America in 1861 and joined the 20th Indiana Volunteer Infantry.
William N. Muster (June 18, 1926 to January 3, 1989) was a photographer, publisher, and marketing executive in Los Angeles.
After joining the Army Air Forces in 1945, Muster served as a publicist, section head, and photo lab chief.
He was stationed in Ansbach, Germany, where he photographed the Nuremberg Trials for the military.
After the war, he attended the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, on the GI Bill, and earned his degree in journalism in 1950.
Bill became an orphan in Chicago during the Great Depression.
Although he remained in contact with his half-brother, he never learned of his ancestry.
Bill married his wife Paula in 1950 and had two children, Nori and Bill.
His career as a marketing executive began at Capitol Records (1953–1959), where he produced the Wrap-Up, a newsletter for the company's salesmen.
After Capitol, he went on to market pre-recorded reel-to-reel tape for Ampex, United Stereo Tapes division.
In 1961 he joined Pacific Network, Inc., and California Communications, Inc., as an executive.
He and his senior business partner, Richard Simonton, ran their companies out of the 6900 Santa Monica Boulevard building in Hollywood, including a Muzak franchise, the Delta Queen, Travelers Almanac publications, a photo lab and studio, equipment rental businesses, and post-production studios.
As president of the Delta Queen from 1966 to 1976, he and vice-president Betty Blake worked to secure federal legislation to allow the boat to continue running.
He is remembered for his defense of the Delta Queen Steamboat in 1970, and his role in the SATW (Society of American Travel Writers) photo contest.
They won historic recognition for the boat in 1970.
Following his divorce in 1970, he lived for the rest of his life in his Skylark Lane home in the birdland neighborhood of the Hollywood Hills West, Los Angeles.
His legacy, the Bill Muster Foundation, supports photographers, including an award and scholarship for photojournalism at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Bill Muster joined the SATW in 1974 to assist Betty Blake in representing the Delta Queen.
Thereafter, he remained an associate member to promote the photo contest.
