Terry Lickona – Producer

In High School, Terry was told that he had a good voice for radio. This eventually led to him moving to Austin, Texas to jump on the radio scene. Although he struggled for financially for a while, he eventually wound up finding a volunteer position at Austin City Limits. Eventually, he worked his way up the chain to become a producer, and that’s where he’s been for over 30 years now.

What overdosing on empathy looks like.

Milestones:

  • Born into a working-class family in Pennsylvania; she lost her father when she was a child and watched as her mother struggled to support her family.
  • She had always had a passion for art, but was convinced that she couldn’t make a practical career out of it.
  • Originally went to college to be a nurse; has an associate degree in nursing from Northampton Community College.
  • Her friend gave her an SLR camera so she decided to take a photography class at her community college—says, “The first time that I developed a print, that was the defining moment.”
  • She enrolled at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale to study photography—says she discovered her niche after taking a class in journalism.
  • Has worked as a staff photographer for The Miami Herald and The Washington Post; she now works mainly as a freelancer.
  • She has won the Pulitzer Prize four times—one of only four people to do so, and the only journalist to have achieved that feat.
  • Says her nursing background has made her a better photojournalist: ”It gave me the foundations of compassion and empathy…if you don’t have those things then you can’t tell someone’s story.”

Riddle Me This!

By Jenel Chandler

One sheet, two-sheet, three sheets or four…some use less and some use more. What am I?
What has arms and legs, but no head?
What can’t be burned in a fire nor drowned in water?
I have a big mouth and I’m quite a load. I’m not gossip, but I get involved in everyone’s dirty business. What am I?
Stepping out? Wear me first! I’ll protect your feet from the worst.
Tall & strong, I stay outside. The sun, the rain, they’re by my side. I give birds homes and help you breathe. I even give you fruit to eat.
Here I come and there I go. I move really fast, anywhere I go. That’s why you take me when you’re in a hurry. When I zoom by, I might look blurry.
Kick up your feet, if you will. I’ll keep you company through Netflix & chill. Though you might not notice, I’m always here, to hold your puns, your snacks and beer.
You say we’re pals that we’re best friends. But only until the morning ends. You say I give you fuel for the day. And when we’re done, you’re gone away.
Don’t frown at me, I made it clear. Won’t make a difference if you’re near. Just stand in front and I’ll show you exactly how the world will know you.

Audio – Baking Day

Baking Day at Nana’s

As my mom reads the story, I am drawn into my memories of hearing her voice, as she would read me yet another story, as I fell asleep.

My parents have become grandparent figures to several neighbor children. We love to find ways to find ways to create positive memories for them. When she reads Baking Day at Grandma’s, she uses her name the girls call her, Nana.

Even though she cannot be with the children like before, they can listen to Nana’s soothing voice.
