The legendary radio broadcaster, writer, oral historian, raconteur and chronicler of our times, Studs Terkel, died Friday at the age of ninety-six in his home town of Chicago. Over the years, Terkel has been a regular guest on Democracy Now! In 2005, he appeared on the show shortly after undergoing open heart surgery. My curiosity is what saw me through," Terkel said. "What would the world be like, or will there be a world? And so, thats my epitaph. I have it all set. Curiosity did not kill this cat. And its curiosity, I think, that has saved me thus far.
