Noah Adams
Noah Adams worked at NPR for over thirty years, where he cohosted All Things Considered and was also National Desk reporter since 2003.
He began working in radio three decades ago as a volunteer DJ at a Kentucky station, and was beckoned to the news side by a local environmental issue.
Adams has written five books, only one of which is about radio. He lives in Yellow Springs, OH, and "still has panicky dreams about not being to get to the studio when the program's starting." He also claims, "I still dream in analog."
