Lynne Truss - Did I Really Ask That?

Available for over a year

Lynne Truss shares her personal treasure trove of interviews with world-famous writers. Between 1980 and 1990, Lynne was a part-time arts journalist, meeting and interviewing many giants of the theatre, including Arthur Miller, Tom Stoppard, Simon Gray, Athol Fugard and Anthony Minghella. For over 20 years these audio cassettes gathered dust in her garage, but now Lynne airs them and finds out, with horror and humour, what her younger self was like as an interviewer, and what she learnt from meeting these great talents. Producer: Sara Jane Hall First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in May 2009.
