This is awesome. I didn't know about this man until I heard about him this morning on NPR. So glad I was listening at that moment. Now I gotta go get his books!
Yeah, so many Christians are abrasive, and go to peoples' doors, and actually are supposed to be abrasive and jam their religion down others' mouths to try to convert them. So I totally feel you. People should be a lot more like people like Studs, you're right.
A GREAT american WHOM WE GREATLY MISS !!
Studs.....Terkel?......no disrespect.....but does anyone else find the name simply funny? in a good way?

I could listen to Studs and Shelby Foote all day, what a wealth of knowledge!
A better man has never spoken. America lost its voice long before his died today. But, hearing him, I feel hope. Honest, real hope.
I read 'Working' ages ago. Interesting. We had a similar interviewer here in Canada named Barry Broadfoot
I've read Terkel's "Working," and his "The Good Fight." Both were magnificent.
You didn’t hear ME when I was young - so, why try to know Me now that I’m old
Damn. I miss the grand Chicago papers and reporters.
RIP Studs. One of the great American voices!
that was just like listening to my grandpa as if he were still alive.
Happy Birthday, Studs! (5.16.12)
His books are fascinating, especially the one (can't remeber) where he interviewed people 30 years later........
RIP Studs.💕
Wow. That was incredible.
