Special Guest: Ian Frazier

Studio 360

Kurt Andersen and writer Ian Frazier cast a few lines and explore the art and culture of fish.

Ian Frazier taught himself to fish at the age of 4, and his essays on the subject were collected in last year’s The Fish’s Eye. A longtime contributor to The New Yorker and Outside, he is also the author of Family, On the Rez, Great Plains, and the humor collections Coyote v. Acme and Dating Your Mom. He lives in New Jersey.
