Born in Oklahoma and raised in Montana, Sarah Vowell is best known for
her bits on public radio's This American Life. A contributing editor

her "funny querulous voice and shrewd comic delivery." As a critic and
reporter, she has contributed to numerous newspapers and magazines,

observations on everything from politics to pop culture.
