Summary:
Novelist Francine Prose and singer and guitarist Alex Chilton on this edition of Fresh Air. Prose's new book Blue Angel echoes the title of the film classic about a German teacher who becomes infatuated with a showgirl. In Prose's novel, a creative writing teacher falls in love with his talented student. Chilton has been playing music for decades. As a teenager he was a member of the Memphis Band Box Tops. He was 16-years-old when they recorded their R&B hit song, "The Letter." Later with the band Big Star he became an underground hero. After dropping out of sight to kick an alcohol addiction, Chilton returned to performing. By then many younger bands, like REM and The Bangles considered him a legend. (Broadcast Date: May 1, 2000)
