92Y Podcast: The Wire’s David Simon and Richard Price
image

In September 2006, David Simon, creator and executive producer of HBO's hit series The Wire, now entering its last season, previewed the 4th season with novelist and show writer Richard Price at the Makor Center of the 92nd Street Y. At the time we posted a 3-minute video clip after the talk. The following 19-minute excerpt expands their lively and loose discussion (warning: contains strong language and a spoiler if you haven't seen the last episode of season 3) on the role of writing and acting in the highly acclaimed series about Baltimore’s urban decay.
