Episode 24: Ed Catton’s Holy Night


Listen Later

Sometimes a single person can be remembered as essential cultural infrastructure. One of those lives, was that of Edward “Ed” Catton (1935-2004). Born into local prominence as the grandson of George Catton, the last headmaster of the Benzonia Academy, and the nephew of Pulitzer-prize winning author, Bruce Catton, Ed chose to invest his talents locally rather than pursue broader acclaim.  In the wider community of northern Michigan, Ed was most remembered as the original voice of Interlochen Public Radio from 1963 to 1997.  This episode features recollections of Ed’s notable stature by Neil Nugent and Dan Kelly. Special thanks to Shri Fugi Split for the rendition of O Holy Night.
