Fakes and Saltbreakers

Studio 360

Studio 360 pulls back the curtain on the world of fakes. Kurt Andersen and art expert Thomas Hoving look at why we still get fooled by artifice. We’ll hear from an art forger in England who did time for his crimes, and about the actors who impersonated presidents during radio’s early days. And later, singer-songwriter Laura Veirs performs live in the studio with her band, Saltbreakers.
