This week on KPR Presents, we remember fantasy and science fiction writer Ray Bradbury, who passed away this week at the age of 91. KPR's Kaye McIntyre interviewed the fantasy writer in 2007, as part of a "Big Read" event at the Topeka-Shawnee County Public Library. Tune in for this in-depth look at one of his most enduring works, Fahrenheit 451, featuring the Topeka interview. This program also features a remembrance of Bradbury from Dr. John Tibbetts, University of Kansas Associate Professor of Film and Media Studies.
Kaye starts her weekends the same way you do: with Weekend Edition Saturday, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, This American Life, and To the Best of Our Knowledge. She started at Kansas Public Radio in 2001; in 2006, she became the producer of our weekly public affairs program, KPR Presents. In her spare time, she loves to read, travel, and attend theater.
