Little Stevie Van Zandt and his Big Ideas

On this week’s episode of You Are What You Read, we are joined by Steven Van Zandt, with his memoir, Unrequited Infatuations. From his time spent as a member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band and Artists Against Apartheid, to his television roles as Silvio Dante in The Sopranos and as Frank Tagliano in Lilyhammer, we discuss Steven’s long, successful career in the arts. He is the founder of TeachRock, a nonprofit dedicated to providing a rich arts-driven curriculum to bolster students' understanding of the history and science behind the music. Steven is recognized internationally as one of the world’s foremost authorities on both Contemporary and Traditional Rock and Roll, and he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His story unfolds in an all-new documentary, DISCIPLE, now streaming on Max.   Thanks to our wonderful sponsors!
