In early 2003, we brought you a special show about a California teenager, Hyder Akbar, who traveled to Afghanistan, his family’s homeland, for the first time. His father had moved back to work for Afghan President Hamid Karzai. Hyder brought along a tape recorder, and his audio diary, produced by Susan Burton, won the Silver Award for Best Documentary at the 2003 Third Coast International Audio Festival.
