In this broadcast, we celebrate the birthday of American writer James Baldwin (Aug. 2, 1924) by playing his interview with Studs Terkel from 1961. Then Molly Stinchfield and Piper Dorrance of the Freehold Art Exchange will be live in the studio to talk about the history and future plans for their residency program. Purple House offers a platform for the creative forces behind the thriving arts communities of New York’s Greene County. This monthly magazine-format show will explore the multitude of talent and the wide range of artistic activities available in the region – including literature, dance, music, film, theater, the visual arts and more.
