Rick Sebak on Hot Dog Doc, Pittsburgh Rites of Passage & Warhol's Burial Place

Beloved documentarian Rick Sebak has spent 50 years in public broadcasting, and WQED is celebrating with a Summer of Sebak marathon. (We'll for sure be tuning in for classics like Kennywood Memories and A Hot Dog Program.) In honor of this milestone, we're bringing back our conversation with the legend himself about where he gets his ideas, the one local story he's still dying to tell, and the rites of passage that make someone a true Pittsburgher. Check out the Summer of Sebak schedule. **This conversation originally published October 11, 2023.
