11/23/10: Remembering Roald Dahl

Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl

By Doug Fabrizio

Salt Lake City, Utah – Tuesday marks the 20th anniversary of Roald Dahl's death, and Doug is joined by Dahl's biographer and friend Donald Sturrock. Roald Dahl is of course the creator of the children's classics "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "James and the Giant Peach," and his own life was as funny, dark and fascinating as the fictional worlds he created. We'll talk about his story and about his evolution as a storyteller.
