Music & Connection

On Public Radio Music Day, some of Maine Public music hosts highlight how public radio stations bring people together in our communities to enjoy music and to provide opportunities to bridge divides. We’ll hear from music lovers from different backgrounds about how music or certain songs have connected them to others in their lives.

Jonathan was born in Monsey, New York. A field trip to Washington, DC when he was in 7th grade started him on his circuitous path to a career in public radio. The trip inspired a love of politics and led to his desire to one day call DC home. After graduating from Grinnell College, he worked on a couple of campaigns in Iowa (presidential and congressional) and moved to Washington, DC.
