Rock and Roll Hall of Fame moves in, classical guru moves out
Wednesday, August 13, 2008
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will be rolling into New York in November. This morning, Mayor Bloomberg was joined by Billy Joel and Clive Davis to help announce the plans for a downtown Manhattan annex to the Cleveland-based museum.
George Steel, one of New York's most unconventional impresarios, will become the new general director of the Dallas Opera. Over the past 11 years, Steel has managed Columbia University’s Miller Theater. He joins us to talk about his move.
