Title: Studio 360: The Great American Reset
Author: Kurt Andersen
Format: Original Recording
Length: 50 mins
Language: English
Release date: 08-07-10
Publisher: WNYC New York and Public Radio International
Genres: Radio & TV, Great Interviews
Publisher's Summary:
The band They Might Be Giants kicks off our live show at the 2009 Aspen Ideas Festival with this song that recalls the pre-crash mentality. "Why be realistic? Don't wake up from the dream."
Next, even after she had seven books to her credit (and was the subject of a movie starring Meryl Streep), Susan Orlean endured a piece of familiar fatherly advice: go to law school, in case writing "didn't work out." Practical but always optimistic, her father came of age during the Great Depression. Orlean thinks she could use some of his can-do attitude now.
Then, in an age of hyper-specialization, Saul Griffith is an old-school inventor. A MacArthur "genius," his work includes a new way to manufacture eyeglasses, kites that generate power, and rope that knows how much weight it carries. Griffith explains how to get kids fascinated by science: promise to send them to school on zip lines.
Finally, the writer of American Wife and Prep thought she had the secret formula for getting work done: she didn't live in New York, didn't write a blog, and didn't have kids until her daughter was born. She hasn't written a word of fiction since. [Broadcast Date: August 7, 2010]
