Lew Frederick

Lew Frederick grew up in Atlanta in the 60's, with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as a part of his neighborhood, so he was part of the civil rights movement in our country from an early age. No surprise, then that issues of equality have been important to him through out his career as a radio and TV journalist at KGW in Portland, in his work with Portland Public Schools, and now as a state senator. Lew has great things to say and share, but the most revealing, I found (and didn't know until this interview close to 40 years after we first met), he came to Portland to be a mime. Now you have to listen.
