February 20, 2007 - “Talk Radio” has opened on Broadway and Talk Radio for Authors is hot off the press. According to Michael Harrison, publisher of Talkers Magazine, in 2006 “talk radio bloomed from a radio business sideshow consisting of less than 100 outlets to a national cultural phenomenon on display at nearly 2,000 radio stations across the nation.”
“Talk Radio for Authors – Getting Interviews Across the U.S. and Canada,” a new book by Francine Silverman, takes the guesswork out of a radio search and helps readers choose the right radio program to contact. While geared toward authors, the book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking air-time. Both Internet and terrestrial shows are featured.
“Radio stations rarely provide the themes of their shows or whether guests are welcome,” says Ms. Silverman. “Radio directories tend to ignore Internet radio and are sorely lacking in solid information.” “Here’s a talk radio niche that’s often overlooked, but no longer,” says Jim Bohannon, host of The Jim Bohannon Show. “Not after Francine gives us ‘Talk Radio for Authors.’”
The book features 230 shows, divided into 40 categories, ranging from Addiction to Women. Each contains the theme, guest criteria, email address, website, and where aired. Host bios and their opinions of the best and worst guests give the book an intimacy lacking in listings.
Talk Radio for Authors is available from Infinity Publishing.
