Art Silverman

Art Silverman has been with NPR since 1978. He came to NPR after working for six years at a daily newspaper in Claremont, New Hampshire.

He is producer of the weekly "All Tech Considered" feature on the program.

  • Forty years ago this month, the Beatles began recording Rubber Soul. A new tribute CD features remakes of the landmark album's 14 tracks. Some of the artists weren't even born yet in 1965, when Rubber Soul came out.
  • Art Silverman visits the Bob Dylan Shrine in Old Bridge, N.J. Mel Prussack, a semi-retired 64-year-old former drugstore owner, has crammed four decades of memorabilia into the second floor of his split-level home.
  • The latest blockbuster animated film from the Pixar hothouse was a huge hit in theaters. But NPR's Art Silverman, not a huge fan of animated films in general, sums up the plot in one sentence and says only the behind-the-scenes vignettes on the DVD set's bonus disk makes the home version worthwhile.
  • The opening of an art exhibit at Arlington National Cemetery showing more than 1,300 portraits of U.S. military personnel killed in Afghanistan and Iraq brings together artists and families of the dead.
