Right Now O'Clock is an audio piece I produced for Genentech Corporate Employee Giving. It was recorded onsite at the Addario Lung Cancer Foundation before and during a Lung Cancer Living Room event. From founder Bonnie Addario: “I realized there was this huge injustice facing people with lung cancer. There was a stigma attached because it was seen as a smoker’s disease. It wasn’t getting the funding for research and patients weren’t getting the same care they should have. That just lit my fire.”

PUBLIC RADIO - long form
“Shake It: A Modern Polaroid Love Story – wonderful radio documentary about our connection with instant photos, featuring Christopher Bonanos, author of the fantastic Instant: The Story of Polaroid, who discusses the many parallels between Polaroid founder Edwin Land and Apple’s Steve Jobs.”
Shake it - a modern Polaroid love story is an art, design, and technology public radio documentary co-produced with Vanessa Lowe of Nocturne.
This documentary features interviews with author, photographer, and editor Christopher Bonanos, filmmaker Gus Van Sant, film evangelist Dave Bias, and the photographers of polaroidsf.com. It also includes audio from the 1972 mini-film that the Eames Studio produced for Polaroid.
This documentary debuted in April of 2014 on WNYC in New York and aired on 65+ public radio stations nationwide. Listen on SoundCloud. Companion storytelling collection was on the wonderful and now defunct storytelling platform Cowbird.
"Captivated by this story. I'm a prodigious consumer and producer of digital images, but remembering the Polaroid slowed me down a bit and made me appreciate that irreplaceable artifact." -- KQED listener comment
"(Megan's) first full-length documentary was a bold work of art with something not often heard in public radio, a sense of fun mixed with honest poignancy." --Dmae Roberts, Independent Writer/Producer, MediaRites
