Literature of Chicago #7: Studs Terkel, Historian of the People

  • Resumen

  • In our third episode celebrating Jewish American History Month for the ChicagoHamburg30 Sister-City Anniversary podcast, we turn to the career of Studs Terkel. Studs was the child of Russian Jewish immigrants, a Pultizer-Prize winning author, and a celebrated oral historian. He became the voice of Chicago over his lengthy career as a radio host. The conversation touches on many themes, including his seminal work, _Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do_ (1974) and _Division Street: America_ (1967). Our expert guests are Peter T. Alter, Chief Historian at the Chicago History Museum and Director of the Studs Terkel Oral History Center. Mark Larson is an oral historian and author of Working in the 21st Century: An Oral History of American Work in a Time of Social and Economic Transformation (2024).
