The silent movie actor Harold Lloyd enjoyed much praise and popularity in the 1920s and beyond. His stunts and outrageous comedy helped him gain an audience that rivaled that of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. But now, more than 80 years later, he doesn’t share the same name recognition as those early luminaries. We’ll talk about why that is with Annette D'Agostino Lloyd, author of two books about the actor.

Later in the show, we'll talk with Gerry Williams, who's recieving a prestegious Governor's Arts Award tonight for his work with pottery. We'll also be joined by the man who's crafting his trophy.
