Summary
Journalist George Packer and television producer John Sacret Young on this edition of Fresh Air. George Packer grew up in a family with a very strong liberal tradition; his grandfather was a populist congressman from Alabama in the early part of the century; his father was a Jewish Kennedy-era liberal who was a professor at Stanford. His new book, the Blood of the Liberals is a memoir about his family's liberalism and Packer's own coming to terms with it. He looks at the history of liberalism in America, and the clashes it caused in his own family. Sacret Young produced VR.5 for the Fox TV lineup. The show's plot is about Sydney Bloom (Lori Singer), who accidentally discovers she can enter any landscape or time of her choosing through her computer. Once into the new world Bloom is unable to control the events that take place or the actions of those she brings with her. Young also produced the TV show China Beach. (Broadcast Dates: October 11, 2000 and May 3, 1995)
