Mark Leviton, "Music Man"

Host Keith Porter brings us the fascinating story of Mark Leviton, who began writing music reviews as a teenager, had a career in the music industry, and retired to Nevada County to enjoy life, broadcast music on KVMR, and write in-depth interviews in The Sun, a national literary magazine. Learn how, while still a kid, his rather critical reviews were published by Rolling Stone, and how he mellowed with time and experienced forgiveness for some harsh early work much later in life. Mark tells us about the many artists he befriended, how his Jewish faith influences his life, and why his radio broadcast is called “Pet Sounds.”
