Don Swaim author interviews
June 28th, 2003
Radio journalist Don Swaim was host of Book Beat, a long-running book show on CBS Radio. Wired for Books hosts a collection of RealAudio versions of Swaim’s interviews with authors as diverse as Douglas Adams, Elmore Leonard, Peter Straub, Joseph Heller and Richard M Nixon (Yes, that Richard M Nixon!)
Typically the interviews run to some 20-30 minutes, and judging by the two interviews with Douglas Adams I listened to this afternoon they’re conducted in a fairly relaxed, breezy style and give the authors the chance to relax and meander a little. I’m definitely going back tomorrow to check out some of the other interviews.
