Yellow and Black

Produced by:

Judith Kampfner

Talk about taxis as a guilty pleasure! Whether it's riding in style on the streets of New York (avoiding the hustle, bustle, and pain of the Subway), or zipping across London's spiraling maze of cross-streets (never doubting your intrepid guide's sense of direction), producer Judith Kampfner takes us on a tour of Taxi drivers -- the rough-edged New York City cabbies, and the traditional, vintage hacks of London.

Program Credits

Yellow and Black was produced by Judith Kampfner. The show was mixed by Jared Weissbrot.
