Why This Former Austinite Absolutely Had to Move Away
Why This Former Austinite Absolutely Had to Move AwayDescription
Can you critique a city that you truly love? Author Alex Hannaford, who moved to Austin after falling in love with it — and then left after growing dismayed 20 years later — says actually, it’s necessary. Hannaford doesn’t hold back in “Lost in Austin,” which takes a close look at the tug-of-war between the economic booms that have made Austin businesses thrive and the downturns that allow creatives to stay in town and in business. Hannaford joins executive producer Eva Ruth Moravec, who isn’t defensive about Austin at all.
Plus, stay tuned after Alex’s interview for a special segment: A mile in their boots, where we feature the unsung heroes of Austin. Today, we’ll hear from Hannah Gabel, literary director for the Texas Book Festival, which takes place downtown this weekend.
