This week, Studio 360 is live in WNYC’s Jerome L. Greene Performance Space, for a special episode about the art of reinvention. The comedian Eugene Mirman finds a new career as a consumer advocate (cable company, beware). Elizabeth Wurtzel (Prozac Nation) goes from bad-girl memoirist to corporate lawyer. And Merrill Garbus transforms herself and indie-rock with the music project tUnE-yArDs — she performs live. (Originally aired: June 3, 2011)
