Today we hear two interviews about youth in the limelight. First an interview with the CEO of Global Citizen Year, Erin Lewellen. She grew up in rural Oregon as the daughter of a logger and schoolteacher and now heads a nonprofit that sends high school graduates around the world on a global gap year to help solve specific problems in the world. This semester is in Cape Town, South Africa where students will work with human rights protection and activism. We'll talk about Erin's early life, GCY's programs, and the public education system. In the second half of the podcast we hear from the authors of the new cookbook, Cooking With My Dad, The Chef which was published in association with America's Test Kitchen. Although the authors, Ken and his daughter Verveine Oringer, live in Boston, they are connected to the rest of the world through Ken's restaurants. Ken is a James Beard Award winning cook and when Verveine was diagnosed with Celiac disease, they decided to write a cookbook for kids that explains how to make everything from pasta to waffles without flour.
