Beskrivning
For years the legendary John Seigenthaler hosted A Word on Words on Nashville's public television station, WNPT. During the show’s four-decade run (1972 to 2013), he interviewed some of the most interesting and most impor­tant writers of our time. These in-depth exchanges revealed much about the writers who appeared on his show and gave a glimpse into their creative pro­cesses. Seigenthaler was a deeply engaged reader and a generous interviewer, a true craftsman. Frye Gaillard and Pat Toomay have collected and transcribed some of the iconic interactions from the show.Featuring interviews with:Arna Bontemps • Marshall Chapman • Pat Conroy • Rodney Crowell • John Egerton • Jesse Hill Ford • Charles Fountain • William Price Fox • Kinky Friedman • Frye Gaillard • Nikki Giovanni • Doris Kearns Goodwin • David Halberstam • Waylon Jennings • John Lewis • David Maraniss • William Marshall • Jon Meacham • Ann Patchett • Alice Randall • Dori Sanders • John Seigenthaler Sr. • Marty Stuart • Pat Toomay

Recensioner i media

Only Seigenthaler could get these esteemed writers to open up and loosen up to discuss writing, art, and their life experiences."—Beverly Keel, Dean of the College of Media and Entertainment, Middle Tennessee State University“This book captures my father’s passion for literature and highlights his interviews with some of the most famous authors of our time. He used A Word on Words to encourage his viewers to ‘keep reading,’ a message that is as important today as it was when he started the program more than four decades ago."—John M. Seigenthaler
