Synopsis
We spend most of the program looking back at the terrifying Polio Epidemic of the late 1940s and early 1950s. We begin by previewing the American Experience documentary "The Polio Crusade," which is being rebroadcast Tuesday night on PBS. After that, you'll hear an interview with David Oshinsky, author of "Polio: An American Story," which served as valuable source material for the film. The hour finishes out with a brief 2003 interview with former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, talking about her memoir "Madame Secretary."
