286: Diane Charnov on shifting from political speech writing to art criticism - a podcast by Ben Carter

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Diane Charnov, this year’s Jentel Critic at the Archie Bray Foundation. After an early career as a political speech writer Diane has been focused for the last decade on art criticism and journalism. In our interview we talk about shifting between persuasive writing and journalism, funny moments from speeches gone awry, and how artists and institutions can better advocate for themselves. In addition to her writing, Diane is an accomplished photographer and ceramic artist. For examples of her writing and art visit www.dianecharnovstudios.com.
