Karl Barth's son Markus Barth was the Professor of New Testament Theology at the University of Chicago, and encouraged his father Karl to visit him and tour the United States of America together [2]. Karl Barth and Charlotte Von Kirschbaum (Lollo) travelled to Chicago shortly after he had retired, and they stayed with Markus Barth for three weeks before embarking on their trip around the states for the first time ever.

While he was still in Chicago, Karl Barth was featured in Time's magazine's Apr 20th, 1962 issue with a cover photo and a featured five-page article titled "Witness to an Ancient Truth". Time said Barth was "A Calvinist--but not a gloomy one" and called him "the Red pastor."
