Suze Rotolo
When they lived in Greenwich Village in 1961 they were cherub-cheeked kids. She was 17, came by subway from Queens and was called Suze Rotolo. He was 20, came from Minnesota and was called Bob Dylan. Almost 50 years later, Suze finally wrote a memoir of her life next to the American icon, just before and during the start of the flood of fame. Suze Rotolo joins us to talk about her book, "A Freewheelin' Time: A Memoir of Greenwich Village in the Sixties."

My daughter in North Carolina and I in New Jersey both caught the wonderful love story you aired. My wife got both our concurring reactions via our cell phones.
Thank you for such an uplifting presentation.
Could Suze respond to the Izzy Young's impressions of Dylan as a charlatan. They knew Dylan during the same period.
we are very interested in this book.
