We spoke to Leo Adam Biga, local freelance cultural journalist and non-fiction book author. His works have spanned many years and subjects. Many times he has traveled for his story, including when he accompanied a group of local students to President Obama's Inauguration, and when he went on the set of well-known writer, director, screenwriter, and Oscar winner, Alexander Payne. This experience resulted in two books: "Alexander Payne: His Journey In Film: A Reporter's Perspective 1998-2012" (Kindle Edition) and "Alexander Payne: His Journey in Film."

Mr. Biga has also written local stories about the FIrehouse Dinner Theatre, and other performing arts productions in Omaha, as well as an array of other subjects. He wrote the book "Open Wide: about a dentist, as well as "Crossing Bridges: A Priests Uplifting LIfe Among the Downtrodden." His articles appear in local publications, and magazines, such as The Reader as well as his website.

Mr. Biga has been recognized by his peers at the local, state and national levels, and we are honored to have him as a guest on the podcast! We hope he will return to share more about his work and current projects!
