Author and journalist Christopher Hitchens died in December 2011 at the age of 62 following a year and a half "struggle" with cancer. Hitchens wrote about his battle with cancer in his final book, Mortality. His widow Carol Blue sits with Bob to discuss those final months of Hitchens's life.
Then, Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot is a sociologist and professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. For her new book, Exit, Lawrence-Lightfoot interviewed people in states of major change: a Catholic priest leaving the church, a gay man who recently came out, an Iranian teenager forced to leave his country. In their stories, she explores how endings and exits affect us. [Broadcast Date: September 5, 2012]
