We’ve loved KBOO Community Radio for many years, and many of our clients work with the station as either employees or volunteers. Although we were underwriters long ago we’ve been remiss in not continuing the relationship, a situation we’re very pleased to say has changed!

We don’t have much to share with you here from the Talk Radio shows but we found something from Democracy NOW that’s perfect for Book Spotlight, this list of some of the many, many authors who have been interviewed on Democracy NOW. We’ve included just a few of the titles below, but the list goes through several hundred important books. If you’re settling in for Fall reading, your list is already complete!
