Hoagy!
In
November 1999 WFIU broadcast a one-hour documentary about the
life and music of Bloomington-born songwriter Hoagy Carmichael.
The program was written, produced, and hosted by Tom Roznowski
(creator of the series Hometown)
and featured interviews with Carmichael biographer Richard Sudhalter,
Indiana University's Chairman of Jazz Studies David Baker, and
Piano Jazz host Marion McPartland. To listen to Hoagy, simply

Each November on Afterglow we'll honor Carmichael's birthday (November

Carmichael Songbook" program.
