Look around your daily life.  There’s a little piece of Thomas Edison almost everywhere.  Your desk lamp. That x-ray you got when you broke your arm.  The battery in your car.  The movie you saw last night. The recording of this story that you’re about to hear…  Welcome to Fugitive Waves.   Today, a story from our Lost & Found Sound series on NPR, The Rise and Fall and Rise and Fall and Rise of Thomas Alva Edison.

Fugitive Waves is produced by The Kitchen Sisters in collaboration with Tom Corwin and mixed by Jim McKee
