The Ampersand
On The Ampersand, we interview guests who think of "and" as a verb鈥攚ho imagine and create by colliding their interests. Hosted by Erika Randall, a dancer, professor, mother, filmmaker and writer, we will explore stories of people who lean into ANDing as a full sensory verb about experiencing and possibility. Join us and discover the alchemy of ANDing.听
Listen to each new episode of Season 5 this fall and check out the season-opening conversation with scholar Ann Schmiesing about the elements of a Grimm Brothers fairy tale!
Written and produced by Erika Randall and Tim Grassley. The Ampersand is a production of the 麻豆免费版下载鈥檚 College of Arts and Sciences.
