Alistair Cooke

[Hakim Madjid]

I'm suprised that no one on this list has yet
mentioned Alistair Cooke has retired after nearly six
decades of broadcasting Letter from America.

Of course, Cooke's Letter from America could be heard
in Boston on WBUR's overnight BBC World Service
broadcasts.

I guess to American radio and TV listeners and
viewers, Cooke is better remembered as the host of
Masterpiece Theatre, and the 'Alistair Cooke's
America' documentary series during the Bicentennial.
