The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
On today's show: The final installment of our Underappreciated Literature series examines the work one of China's most widely read authors, Eileen Chang. And actor Bruce Dern looks back over his film career, including his experiences working with Alfred Hitchcock, Jack Nicholson, Paul Newman and Jane Fonda. Also, Michael Lerner tells the story of Prohibition in New York City. But first, ABC News correspondent Martha Raddatz reports on the lives of our soldiers at war abroad and their anxious families back home.
