Produced for NPR, these in-depth features celebrate creativity, history, and folk traditions.

 A radio series born out of the belief that many of the best stories are tucked away in rural places and overlooked by most of the mainstream media, Deep West Radio Documentaries are not stories taken from headlines, but rather spread by word-of-mouth, and uncovered through field research. Produced by Hal Cannon and Taki Telonidis, the series ran from 2000 through 2012.
