How Glasses Changed the World with Biographer & Historian David King Dunaway

How did a controversial tool become an essential part of the human experience? In this episode, I’m joined by David King Dunaway, a distinguished Professor of English at the University of New Mexico, award-winning biographer (known for his definitive work on folk legend Pete Seeger), pioneering oral historian, and longtime public radio producer. David joins the show to discuss his latest book, A Four-Eyed World: How Glasses Changed the Way We See. Together, we dive into a fascinating cultural history that examines the evolution of lenses, how they transformed modern society, and the way they changed how we literally and figuratively view the world. If you love history, literature, and deep dives into the everyday objects that define modern life, this conversation is for you!#eddrickshow #DavidKingDunaway #CulturalHistory #AFourEyedWorld #HistoryOfGlasses #AuthorInterview
