I just found out today that I am going to be interviewed for the nationally syndicated Public Radio International program, The Story with Dick Gordon". The topic, How Leslie Cheung Transformed My Life. I responded to an open invitation to share my story of how my encounter with an individual totally changed my life. That person for me was Leslie Cheung, even though by the time I discovered Leslie he had been dead for 4 years! So much of what I am involved in today, I owe to that transformative encounter with Hong Kong's favored son.
I'll post the broadcast date and how to access live streaming and the podcast when I know this info. The program should air within a few weeks. I have been a huge fan of Dick Gordan since his days at WGBH in Boston when he hosted The Connection. After WGBH foolishly canceled that program, Boston's loss became North Carolina's gain. Dick Gordon was invited by the local NPR station in central North Carolina to create a new radio program, which is The Story.
Stay Tuned!
