I was contacted by a producer for KOIN, who heard about my on-going work looking into Amanda's life, the circumstances leading up to her dropping her children from the Sellwood Bridge in May 2009 (lead up as in, decades), how the community responded well and badly, who wants to keep things hidden and why. This will not all be revealed, I am sure, in a two-minute clip, but Amy Frazier, the interviewer, is a super-pro and I am in her good hands. The piece will be part of the 11pm newscast tonight, January 10, KOIN-TV Portland, Channel 6.
Some of you have read the essays I posted in 2009-2011 about Amanda. Those are currently offline as the book, "To the Bridge," is written. We had interesting, sometimes heated conversations on this blog, and I invite you as always to be in contact with me.
