I want to thank those closest to me for being the wonderful human beings they are—-and for sustaining me through another year. Empty-nesters like Sharon and me can’t always get the whole family together for the holidays, so I’ve decided to do it through photographs.
Here we are with daughters Eleanor and Susannah in Georgia on the day Susannah got her MFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Eleanor lives in Orlando.
This is a much better shot of Jerdahn and her mother, Anna. Brean, Anna and Jerdahn live in Houston.
So there they are. I love them all dearly. Maybe we can all find our way into single photograph in 2008.

Why were the last minutes of the Exodus piece cut?
That was almost certainly a local-station issue…I don’t pretend to understand all the "magic" that goes on with audio files being sent all over satellites and the Internet from origin to station (I spend my time in the days where 16" transcription disks were sent through the mail) not to mention all the computers that gather, order, track, and broadcast the various programs to us (maybe Executive Producer Steve Lickteig might consider posting a few blog entries explaining all this new-fangled technical stuff to those of us still in the dark ages!), but the entire uncut show is available through XM Radio’s Bob Edwards Weekend podcast.
For this specific hour of the December 21-23 edition, here is a direct link. But trust me, you want to subscribe to the podcast, just in case WBEZ makes a goof some other time. 😉
On Bob Edwards Weekend program broadcast on WBEZ /Chicago noon Sunday 12/23/07 the last 7~10 minutes of the Exodus inmate re-entry program piece were silent. The show cut out, there were 7~10 minutes of dead air and then re-started with "Welcome back to Bob Edwards weekend…." and the story about the Kentucky radio station/ prison film / human rights etc followed.
