David Green is a Chicago-area third grade teacher and writer. Unable to run away and join NPR, Green instead developed an audio production curriculum at school. Thus, Third Grade Audio was born. From personal narratives to profiles, eight- and nine-year-old students capture aspects of life, which go unnoticed by those of us with "older" eyes and ears. Third Grade Audio work has been featured on public radio, PRX, and Generation PRX.
