Where We Live

Catherine Shen

Booking Overview

This is a regional public-affairs interview show that puts Connecticut issues in national and international context, regularly featuring government officials, academics, journalists, clinicians, educators, authors, and other subject-matter experts. PR agencies could credibly pitch Connecticut-relevant policy leaders, researchers, authors, health professionals, educators, and experts who can explain how broader issues affect residents; booking difficulty is medium because guests need strong expertise and a clear local angle, though national celebrity is not usually required.
