Freeman, Byron, Glaser

Studio 360

Studio 360 plays against type. Morgan Freeman has portrayed the President and God on film, so what drew him to his latest role as a has-been actor in the independent movie, Ten Items or Less? Milton Glaser, an authority in the design world, tells Kurt why he believes in challenging authority. We’ll also hear some musical surprises: genre-busting jazz clarinetist Don Byron, and a folk singer who has befriended a marine in Iraq.
