ON OCTOBER 13, the medical school sponsored a live broadcast of the public radio program “A Prairie Home Companion” at the Hippodrome Theatre. More than 2,000 fans were in the audience at the Hippodrome, but because the radio program is syndicated around the world, tens of thousands more across the globe were treated to sketches and music about Baltimore and current events with host Garrison Keillor and the cast from Lake Wobegon. Afterward, the school and radio station WYPR 88.1 FM held a reception for guests and the cast.

Mary Rodgers, PhD, PT, professor and chair, department of physical therapy & rehabilitation science, meets Garrison Keillor after the show.	Stephen Liggett, MD, professor, departments of medicine and physiology, and wife Claire Fraser-Liggett, PhD, professor, department of medicine, and director, institute for genome sciences, enjoy a night out at the event.
