StoryCorps Austin: Ian Pearce and Reeve Hamilton

The StoryCorps mobile booth was in Austin in January, and we’re bringing you some of the stories that were recorded there. Locally recorded stories will air on Monday mornings during Morning Edition and archived here. Reeve Hamilton visited the StoryCorps booth when it was in town. He sat down with 91-year-old Ian Pearce, who he refers to as his “surrogate grandfather.” For almost thirty years, Ian was a constant companion to Reeve’s grandmother, Margaretta Bolding.
