Summary: r Hillary Frank launched a decade-long career in radio with an answering machine as a tape recorder. In college, Hillary was dead-set on getting a story on This American Life. The fact that she had no radio experience what-so-ever didn't matter. She just made a story and sent it in. But, instead of a professional mic and recorder, she used the built in mic on an answering machine and then edited on a boom box cassette player. Really. Eventually, Hillary worked at This American Life and half-a-dozen other radio programs. Now, she's harnessed the creative spark again, this time with a podcast -- The Longest, Shortest Time. On this HowSound, Hillary talks about inspiration, podcasting, and motherhood. Cheers, Rob
