Bob Kerr audio memoir on NPR ( my comment)


Just by chance I caught this Bob Kerr audio memoir . Bob  is mentioned not infrequently in past years( as far back as 1997 ) in my blog which I only got organized after he retired-or was forced to retire- from the Providence Journal. I joked about Bob being called " Comrade Kerr " monotonously by Talk Radio celebrity John DePetro. Bob had scheduled an interview with a troubled , homeless friend of mine called " Ragged Dave " in a Providence Journal letter- to- the editor.
I should tell him that " Ragged Dave " is not homeless now but is as neurotic as ever. A few years ago Bob thought that " Ragged Dave " just would not " resonate " with readers of his column.
      Bob Kerr is missed. A great columnist for many years.
