Live in Aspen

Studio 360

This week in Studio 360, multiple personalities. In a program recorded last July at the Aspen Ideas Festival, Tony Award-winning performer Sarah Jones joins Kurt Andersen on stage, and transforms herself into a dizzying range of characters — from a Jewish grandmother to a teenaged rapper. Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner, who developed the theory of multiple intelligences, gives some free analysis to audience members who tell us about big decisions. And country rocker Steve Earle sings about leaving Tennessee, performing tracks from his new record “Washington Square Serenade.”

Studio 360 Live in Aspen 2008 is a co-production of PRI, WNYC, The Aspen Institute and The Atlantic. Special thanks to Ed Haber, Rob Christiansen, Chris Bannon, Nuala McGovern and Lisa Allison.
