The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Woody Guthrie was one of the best-known and most prolific American songwriters. And while nearly everyone has heard his songs (especially “This Land is Your Land”), not many people are familiar with his art. His daughter Nora Guthrie joins us today with a new collection of over 300 works by her father. The new collection is titled Woody Guthrie Artworks.
