New York based readers of this blog may already be familiar with the Leonard
Lopate show, the popular news/talk show on local public radio station WNYC. This
Thursday, April 17th, our own George O’Connor will be a guest on the show to
talk about his First Second graphic novel Journey into Mohawk
Country
. He’ll be joined by Mr. Charles Gehring, the man who originally
translated the diary of 17th century Dutch explorer Harmen Meyndertsz van den
Bogaert, that serves as the text for the novel.

If you’re interested in hearing what George sounds like, local listeners
can tune in at 1:00 pm to either FM 93.9 or AM 820. For those more remote or the
wired at heart, check out wnyc.org for mp3s and other listening options.
