Mixing Up the Medicine: an "Inside-Out Biography"
Q: Did you ever feel any pressure considering that you're basically charged with telling the official story?
Yes, there's significant pressure as people will scrutinize the book for content, especially regarding photos and narratives used.
Mixing Up the Medicine: an "Inside-Out Biography"
Q: How did this project even start? Was there always a plan for a book like this since the acquisition of the Bob Dylan archives? How did this come about?
The project started back in 2016 when the Bob Dylan archive came to Tulsa, with the idea of bringing people to the archives to choose a piece and write an essay about it, which eventually blossomed into the book.
"She's an Artist, She Don't Look Back": A Conversation With Cat Power

Cat Power was surrounded by music as a child and found Dylan's storytelling appealing, seeing it as both a personal challenge and a source of inspiration.
Outlaw Festival Recap with Britt Eisnor
Q: Is there anything else that you would want people to check out from the shows that you've seen or even what you've seen online?
Check out Little Queenie and stuff like that, I guess is what I'm saying. Last night's show was just, I don't know if it was because the acoustics were really good in there or something, but the band sounded very, very loud and energetic.
Outlaw Festival Recap with Britt Eisnor
Q: So I wanted to talk to you because I was really intrigued in your Instagram bio. It says you're an aspiring Dylanologist. I wanted to also ask you what that means to you and how you're going about that.
I've been a fan of Bob's music for a really long time in my life. It was part of the music I grew up on and what my dad got me into, and what I was pretty passionate about in middle school.
