Leaving A Mark




How Sound show

Summary: Here's what I want to know: On the radio, why don't we hear more conversations with interesting people? Not newsmakers, not academics, not pundits, not authors.... interesting as they may be. I'm thinking of people telling stories about what journalist Walter Harrington calls "the momentous events of everyday life." Emily Hsiao's radio story, "Leaving A Mark," is just that. On the face of it, the story is a simple conversation between Emily and Bruce Roderick. But, there is SO much more going on. In fact, you should listen twice.
