Salt Lake City, UT – When the Glen Canyon Dam was built, 186 miles of the Colorado River flooded and the Lake Powell Reservoir was born. Katie Lee has called it the "damning of an Eden unequaled." Lee is an author, folk singer, poet and river runner and at 87, she continues to mourn the river that formed her. She joins Doug, along with Ken "Seldom Seen" Sleight, to talk about Glen Canyon and about lives dedicated to environmental activism.
On Wednesday, May 9 at 7:00 p.m., Katie Lee's new DVD "Love Song to Glen Canyon" will premiere at the Broadway Cinema Theater in Salt Lake City. A reception and book signing will be held immediately following at Ken Sanders Rare Books. For tickets and information, call the bookstore at 521-3819 or visit them on-line
