For International Holocaust Remembrance Day, WUOT’s Chrissy Keuper sat down with two scholars from the University of Tennessee to talk about their research into European Jews and the Holocaust. Helene Sinnreich is Associate Professor of Religious Studies and Director of The Fern and Manfred Steinfeld Program in Judaic Studies. Marilyn Kallet is Professor Emerti of Creative Writing and Knoxville’s Poet Laureate.

Chrissy served as WUOT's News Director and host of monthly public affairs talk show Dialogue from late 2021 to early 2023. Her first job with the station was as weekend student announcer while earning her bachelor's in Anthropology from the University of Tennessee. She had previously been the station's local host for NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered news programs; occasionally filled in as host for WUOT's Morning and Afternoon Concerts; and won multiple awards for her interviews, feature stories, and Dialogue.
