Journalist Philip Hilts and jazz record label owner Bob Koester on this edition of Fresh Air. Hilts is a longtime correspondent on health and science policy for The New York Times. In his new book Protecting America's Health: the FDA, Business, and One Hundred Years of Regulation he chronicles the history of the Food and Drug Administration from its start in the administration of Teddy Roosevelt. Previously Hilts broke the now-famous story of the Brown and Williamson tobacco industry papers, and is the author of Smoke Screen: The Truth Behind the Tobacco Industry Cover-Up.

Koester is the founder and owner of the Chicago-based jazz and blues label Delmark, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. Artists Junior Wells, Little Walter, Big Joe Williams, and Coleman Hawkings have all recorded on the label. (Broadcast Date: April 30, 2003)
