Author to Author radio interview
It’s live! On March 27, 2024, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviewed me on WCAT Radio about STARVING: Can We Feed Everyone? We discussed food insecurity, our broken food chain, and how it all relates to Corporal Works of Mercy for WCAT radio’s Author to Author program. I’m so grateful I connected with Dr. Sebastian Mahfood during the The Catholic Writers Guild online conference in February. Click here to listen to the program.
