Maybe he walked you through the grants process. Now, you can hear him participate in Nashville Public Radio’s Movers & Thinkers #6: Guardians Of The Past

The podcast was recorded with a live audience on April 21 in the NPR studio. Dr. Hanson was joined by author and cooking enthusiast Jennifer Justus, and lawyer and history buff David Ewing. Together, the three were interviewed by host Emily Siner as collectors and preservers of the past.
