Jim Lehrer was the author of twenty-one novels, three nonfiction books, and four plays. His work in journalism began as a newspaper reporter in Texas. He then worked for more than forty years in public television. He co-founded \\u201cThe PBS NewsHour,\\u201d which he anchored for 36 years, he also moderated 12 presidential debates. Jim Lehrer died on January 23, 2020.

This is an interview I did with Jim in 2010. We discussed his new novel "Super", a historical novel set on the Super Chief luxury train in 1956.
