About the Event
For more than 37 years at WABE, NPR's Atlanta radio station, Lois Reitzes programmed and hosted classical music. since 2015, when the format switched to News/Talk, she hosted a daily arts and culture show. Research suggests at an emotional level, there is something deeper about hearing than seeing and something about hearing other people that fosters human relationships even more than seeing them. This class will explore that relationship and stories from Reitze's tenure at WABE.
