Caitlin Doughty
The Order of the Good Death

The Springfield-Greene County Library's series this month, Death & Dying:  Conversations about End-of-Life Matters, features exhibits and speakers--some coming in from across the United States.  One is Caitlin Doughty, author of "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes."  KSMU's Michele Skalicky talked with Doughty ahead of her October 15 visit.

Doughty will speak at the Library Center Saturday night (10/15) at 6.

Michele Skalicky has worked at KSMU since the station occupied the old white house at National and Grand. She enjoys working on both the announcing side and in news and has been the recipient of statewide and national awards for news reporting. She likes to tell stories that make a difference. Michele enjoys outdoor activities, including hiking, camping and leisurely kayaking.
