The Artists Who Worked For The CIA (1960) w/ Benjamen Walker
[[This is an episode from the This Day archives -- we'll be back with a new conversation real soon!]]
It's May 5th. This day in 1960, a British theater critic named Kenneth Tynan is hauled before a Senate sub-committee to answer questions about what is seen as his anti-American work.
It's a moment that captures the cultural and political swirl of the late 50s, which is the subject of Benjamen Walker's new audio series "Not All Propaganda Is Art," out now as part of the Radiotopia show "Theory of Everything." Check it out!
