Wednesday on Lake Effect: The Milwaukee 14, 'Life Itself,' 'The Eagle In Me'

Wednesday on Lake Effect:

 

One of the members of the so-called Milwaukee 14 remembers the day 50 years ago when he and others broke into a government office building, burned draft records, and were arrested.  Later, our film contributor says the new Amazon Studios' release, "Life Itself," deserves a better fate than the reception it has received so far.  And a Milwaukee actor has taken it upon himself to share the life and work of author, poet, and editor Carl Sandburg, who once called Milwaukee home.

 

Guests: 

  • Bob Graf, member of the Milwaukee 14
  • Dave Luhrssen, film contributor
  • Jonathan Daly, actor/creator, The Eagle In Me: An Evening of Carl Sandburg
