What a treat to chat with Carol Cram, novelist and host of the Art in Fiction podcast about The Maestro and Her Protégé. We had a lively conversation, touching on creativity and discipline, passion and sacrifice, grief and joy, ambition and gender, writing books and making music. And of course, we talked about how the fictional Hannah Schaeffer makes her way to the real-life Nadia Boulanger, Leonard Bernstein, Walter Piston, and Philip Glass! The Art in Fiction podcast is available on all podcast platforms, including Apple and Spotify, and you can also tune in through the website, where you might want to check out the comprehensive reviews of terrific books centered in the arts! I hope you’ll have a listen.
