Best In The Biz 20 February, 2008 Not everyone does their homework, but that level of scrutiny shows in Terry Gross's grilling of some of show business's best. Jodi Foster opens up like never before and George Clooney never fails to charm.

Terry Gross & Stars: Up To Her Usual Standards 24 May, 2007 When Terry Gross interviews someone, customarily the subject is remote. That is, the person that she is talking to is located in another city, sometimes half a continent away. I have a recurring fantasy, based on my years of listening to her splendid interviews, that someone always arranges that the engineer in the remote location has a sign that he holds up at some point in the interview.
The sign simply says, "That's a good question, Terry." And then those words magically come out of the subject's mouth.
Nobody else consistently hits that many bullseyes. This is a highlight reel.

Gross's Stars 11 February, 2007 NPR's Terry Gross tend to ask question the general public what to know. Her interviews are well researched and she pulled no punches when she asks a question.
In this collection Stars, she covers the gambit from Robin Williams, Tim Curry to Jodie Foster, George Clooney and Daid Cronenberg. She does not make her interviews fan like, however she covers what fans want to hear. She also glosses over items people do want to hear.
Her intelligence of her subject matter transends any glossed over information..I think that is why she is NPR's best interviewer
If you want insighting into people not celebrities, this two disk collection is for you
