When Michael Krasny took over as Forum host in 1993 he assured listeners that he would preserve the program’s commitment to news and politics but promised to open up “new vistas in the arts…and the life of the mind”. Since then, he’s become a beloved Bay Area institution, covering the biggest stories of the past three decades and interviewing everyone from world leaders to Hollywood stars to community activists. For his last show, Michael will share memories and reflections on his distinguished career with NPR’s Ron Elving, and he especially wants to hear from you.

Guests:

Michael Krasny, host of Forum, KQED Public Radio

Ron Elving, senior editor and correspondent on the Washington Desk, NPR News
