Jean Shepherd's Account....

of his trip to the March on Washington. Really interesting. From the guy who wrote "A Christmas Story". His radio show is from another age, but still resonates. This is a great listen.

Nice to see someone noticed! Jean Shepherd had always say that you have to have an editor's eye to see the real world. I am wrapping up production on a documentary on the life and Career of Jean Shepherd.
