During any crisis, the "cool" heads prevail. In this episode we'll cover some Chicago's most daunting and outrageous challenges -- like an airport bulldozed in the middle of the night.
Forrest Claypool has held the highest
leadership post at three of the most critical municipal
institutions: the park district, the public schools, and the
Chicago Transit Authority.
Claypool is the author of The Daley Show: Inside The Transformative Reign
of Chicago's Richard M. Daley. Thom Serafin goes behind the scenes
at City Hall with Claypool, who served as Daley's Chief of Staff
for two tenures. This is a conversation about the
unapologetic use of power, and an adept use of passion for the
Windy City.
