Tune in tomorrow night, Tuesday, December 1, to listen to me talk about olive oil–Umbrian olive oil, to be precise–with Amy-Louise Pfeffer and the hosts of Farm2Fork. Amy-Louise and her husband Mike Sola’s adventures in producing and importing Italian olive oil are the subject of my recent Edible Pioneer Valley article (to be uploaded to my site in its entirety soon).
Listen to the interview at Valley Free Radio. Farm2Fork airs from 6:30 to 7:30. Our segment starts at 7:10.
Calling all Latin music enthusiasts!
Ilan Stavans and I are editing a four-volume reference work on Latin music in the United States. It will be published by ABC-CLIO next year. We’re looking for music writers and academics to write 1,000-, 3,000-, and 5,000-word entries on musicians/composers, cities, countries, musical rhythms/styles, and important themes. Please send an email to jennifer@jenniferacker.com with a writing sample (3-5 pages) and CV if you’re interested in contributing.
Gracias.
