A Voice That Changed Radio

Terkel was a master interviewer, and some of these tapes are beautiful time capsules. For example, this interview with Shel Silverstein in 1961, conducted when Silverstein was only 30 and still «just» a Playboy cartoonist and songwriter. (His children’s books would come a few years later.)
