Bringing Life to Characters: Episode 15 Jim Nesbitt

On this episode, I'll chat with Jim Nesbitt, the author of four hard-boiled Texas crime thrillers that feature battered but dogged Dallas PI Ed Earl Burch. Nesbitt was a journalist for more than 30 years, serving as an editor and roving correspondent for newspapers and wire services in Alabama, Florida, Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Washington, D.C. He chased hurricanes, earthquakes, plane wrecks, presidential candidates, wildfires, rodeo cowboys, migrant field hands, neo-Nazis and nuns with an eye for the telling detail and an ear for the voice of the people who give life to a story.
