About the Author
Writer and truck driver Russ Ringsak has been with Public Radio International's "A Prairie Home Companion" since 1974. When he's not backstage writing up Garrison Keillor's rundown, he can usually be found behind the wheel of the 48-foot semi-trailer that they use to haul the radio show's equipment from venue to venue. He lives in St. Paul, Minnesota. Denise Remick is a freelance researcher and production artist living in St. Paul.
