Anne Smedinghoff, the 25-year-old American diplomat killed by a bomb while delivering textbooks to children in Afghanistan, was also involved in promoting a recent Afghan youth orchestra trip to the United States.
The tour took them to the Kennedy Center and to The World’s studios here in Boston.
Marco Werman tells us about their visit.
