WVXU Events and Information

Terry Gross
An Evening with Terry Gross
Presented by National City
Thursday, June 19th
Aronoff Center for the Arts

She’s been asking questions on the radio for more than 30 years, and her interviewing approach is “a remarkable blend of empathy and warmth, genuine curiosity and sharp intelligence," according to The San Francisco Chronicle.

She’s Terry Gross, host of NPR’s Fresh Air and 91.7 WVXU is welcoming her to the Aronoff Center on Thursday, June 19 for an evening of anecdotes, reflections and highlights of some of her favorite, and most memorable, interviews.

She began on Fresh Air in 1975 in Philadelphia, and today the show is heard on over 450 stations. She has interviewed the famous and the infamous… newsmakers and ordinary citizens. Fresh Air received the Peabody Award in 1994 and Terry was personally cited for her "probing questions and unusual insights." Fans of Fresh Air won’t want to miss this rare opportunity to hear Terry Gross live and in person, with the opportunity for a book signing following her presentation.

Tickets for Terry Gross go on sale Friday, February 8 through the Cincinnati Arts Association (513-621-ARTS or www.cincinnatiarts.org or at the Aronoff Center box office). VIP packages including a pre-talk reception will also be available.

Additional support provided by Duke Energy.
