In the tradition of Peter Gzowski’s The Morningside Papers comes a book that celebrates the great stories and personalities behind As It Happens.
For eight years, Mary Lou Finlay had the pleasure of being the co-host of one of CBC Radio’s most enduring institutions. On any given day she and Barbara Budd interviewed people on subjects varying from the Air India investigation to a man who invented a suit that would withstand an attack from a grizzly bear to a cheese-rolling contest in Cheshire. The As It Happens Files gives us the great stories – the hilarious eccentrics, the audience favourites, the poignant moments – that make up, for many Canadians some of the fondest, most vivid memories of the last decade.

'For eight years, Mary Lou Finlay had the pleasure of being a host of As It Happens. . . . [This book] contains Mary Lou's reminiscences about the most significant stories she has covered, starting with her very first day on the job, which happened to be the day after the death of Princess Diana. From that singular event to momentous occasions like the election that Al Gore won (but then lost) and the ongoing Air India fiasco, Mary Lou tells the inside story of how an intrepid group of producers and journalists put the show together day-in and day-out. But be warned: the book definitely 'contains nuts'! - that is, a whole slew of eccentric guests.' 280 pages. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 036367
