In Memory of John Solomon: Pulling Back the Curtain

On the Media | May 5, 2011

This week, one of our favorite and most longstanding contributors, John Solomon, died after a long illness. Back in 2004 John convinced us to do a piece about how our show, and public radio, is edited. "Pulling Back the Curtain" remains one of the most popular, enduring and defining pieces we’ve ever aired, and so we're re-airing it in his memory.
