Mike Stephen talks with Glass Slipper Project board president Amy Ross about how her organization helps deliver prom dresses to deserving high school girls in Chicagoland, visits with RHINO poetry journal editor Ralph Hamilton about celebrating the 39th year of this prestigious international poetry journal based in Evanston, and learns about boogie-woogie pianist Meade "Lux" Lewis from Plastic Crimewave (aka Steve Krakow) in the final "Winter Blues" edition of The Secret History of Chicago Music this season. Meanwhile, the show is again nearly derailed by a political pollster. This week's local music is provided by Unplugged and Reborn.
