You’ll want to bring your notebook (and your ears) to this session! 

Rob Rosenthal will dissect what makes for a compelling feature: scenes, interviewing for story, structure, focus, scoring, and writing.  

He’ll put a stack of examples under the microscope from This American Life and beyond.  

Speaking of This American Life, Ira Glass once said: “Rob is, arguably, the best radio teacher in the country.” (Rob nearly passed out when he heard that!)  

He has taught documentary audio storytelling in the United States and around the world for nearly twenty-five years. He’s also a story editor and reporter/producer.  

To get a sense of how Rob thinks and talks about the craft, listen to Sound School, his long-running podcast produced for PRX and Transom.
