    Chris Grabenstein returns to UT
    Todd Steed
    Chris Grabenstein was sure he wanted to be a radio DJ... until he actually tried it. After stints at WUOT and W149 while attending UT, Chris changed course and eventually became a beloved writer for young readers. He recently returned to UT to give the commencement address for the College of Communication & Information. He sat down with Todd Steed to discuss his time in Knoxville and his path to becoming a writer.
