‘Bob Edwards Weekend’: Tobias Wolff and Stephen Root

Bob Edwards Weekend

Stephen Root is one of Hollywood’s hardest-working character actors. He often works in movies by the Coen brothers, and is probably best known for his role in the cult comedy hit "Office Space." For his latest project, Root joins George Clooney and Rene Zellweger in "Leatherheads," a comedy about football’s early days.

"Bob Edwards Weekend" is a two-hour interview showcase, in which celebrated host Bob Edwards highlights the life and work of interesting people, from newsmakers, historians, and authors to artists, actors, and regular folks too. The show is produced by XM Satellite Radio and distributed nationwide by PRI.
