Keillor Goes In To Overdrive

At the age of 62 Garrison Keillor is busier than he’s ever been. He “has become an American institution during his 30-plus-year career, often compared to Mark Twain or Will Rogers, or both. But the expanding Keillor “brand” is in no danger of ending up on a cereal box or in a reality show. He’s not that needy. Keillor is like the sausagemaker who loves to hear compliments about his product, and is happy if you buy it, though he will never once mention it’s for sale. Don’t ask to watch him make it, either, or where he shops for his ingredients. He’ll start edging for the exit.”
