Danny Goldberg is the author of the acclaimed books “How The Left Lost Teen Spirit”, “Bumping into Geniuses”, “In Search of the Lost Chord: 1967 & the Hippie Idea” & “Serving the Servant: Remembering Kurt Cobain”. He began his career in 1969 with Billboard, for whom he reviewed the Woodstock Festival, & later wrote for Rolling Stone & Crawdaddy. He worked as personal manager for Nirvana, Bonnie Raitt, the Allman Brothers Band, Sonic Youth, & our very own Musician-in-Residence Jill Sobule & was president of several major record companies to boot! Danny is former chair of the ACLU of Southern California, serves on the board of Public Citizen, & frequently writes about politics & culture for “The Nation”. Tonite we look forward to a robust conversation about his newest book, “Bloody Crossroads 2020” which draws from brand-new interviews with Bruce Springsteen, John Legend, Rosanne Cash, David Simon, Adam McKay, Chuck D, David Corn, Mandy Patinkin, & many more. It also explores the important political activities of entertainers like Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, Taylor Swift, Cardi B, Alyssa Milano, Mark Ruffalo, Jane Fonda, Robert De Niro, Bette Midler, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, Ava DuVernay, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, & Wanda Sykes & expertly dissects & celebrates how the empowering actions of artists & entertainers helped a record turnout of everyday citizens realize a triumphant 2020 election.
