Catherine Burns is the Artistic Director of The Moth. In this episode, we sit down to deconstruct a story by Janna Levin and talk about the history of the nation's most popular and widely-known storytelling series.

Use of audio from several live recordings of Janna's story was kindly granted by Catherine Burns and The Moth.
