Work with Marty Nemko, 9/17/17: An Artist's Travails

On the Sep. 17, 2017 edition of Work with Marty Nemko, I talk with MIT-trained artist Ben Wood about his successes, failures, and lessons learned in the art world.

In the program's second segment, I do Workovers on callers.  Whatever career conundrum is besetting you or someone you care about, I can usually help.

Through Oct. 1, Work with Marty Nemko is heard every Sunday from 11 AM to noon. For a few weeks after that, the show will be take a hiatus but will resume, probably on Oct 26 or Nov 2 (The date hasn't been finalized) at a new time: Thursdays from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

The programs are archived on NPR.org and iTunes and in perpetuity on this web page.
