Edgar Arnold Wright, known as "Buster" or "Bus" Wright grew up in the Connersville area and also north of there, west of Richmond, IN and came from a fairly large family of Wrights in the area, which had migrated from NC.

He had been an auto detailer for various automotive manufacturers in Indiana and Michigan before entering the restaurant business in the 1930s. He and his wife, together, operated homestyle cooking restaurants in MI, including in Pontiac, and in IN, including the Coffee Pot on the famous Hwy 40 (National Road) west of Richmond, IN during WW II (known for its large coffee pot emblem sign along highway). They also ran restaurants in Anderson, IN where he lived out his final years. Bus was the cook. They sold their restaurant in Anderson by January 1967 and retired.

They lived many more years, and resided at a retirement community among their friends. Later Buster resided in a senior facility in his latter years.
