Mending Fences

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
President Bush is visiting Europe this week. Today, a look into how the war in Iraq has changed the relationship between Europe and the U.S., and whether we need each other's goodwill. Plus, we reconsider the life and work of John James Audubon. He's considered a great illustrator, but can we also call him one of the greatest American artists ever? Then Andrew Sean Tivoli shares his new novel, The Confessions of Max Tivoli. And actor Bruno Ganz tells what it's like to play the role of Adolph Hitler.
