Nora wrote to me and some other friends:

I thought you might want to know that NPR's Morning Edition is slated to broadcast an interview with me tomorrow morning (March 16) on the coalition role in Iraq. I do not know exactly when the segment will air; they said that it would most likely be at 15 minutes past the hour, but they did not mention which of the two hours they meant. (As a further complication, different NPR stations do not always broadcast the show at the same time). The show should be audio archived online after the broadcast, though, if you miss it, and I should get a transcript within a day or so.

Just sharing with all my chums in LJ land who might like to hear what a very wise and knowlegeable lady my sweetheart is.

Edit: The page at NPR.org for the segement with Nora is up. The audio file isn't there yet, but it should be available by 1000.

Listening to it right now.

I heard it this morning in the shower at 7:18 on WAMU. I was impressed, as before, by Nora's coherence and poise when speaking extemporaneously. Not having read your post beforehand, it was a pleasant surprise.

It's very cool to expand the list of "voices I know personally that I sometimes hear on the radio" beyond former CBO folks.

What was interesting about listening to it was knowing that (as Nora told me last night) the original interview took about ten minutes and was very chatty and recursive. The finished product was about a third of that and seamlessly spliced together bits of conversation to provide the sort of brisk question-and-answer sound.
