Today’s episode features Madeleine Crouch, who has served as general manager of the International Society of Bassists for the past 25 years.  Madeleine and I talk about her musical background, the value of a liberal arts education, the growth of the ISB over the years, and new developments for the organization like the ISB/George Vance Online Research Library, Online Journal of Bass Research, ISB Connect, teacher directory, and luthier directory.  We also give a sneak preview of the 50th anniversary convention which will take place at Ithaca College in upstate New York.  Enjoy!
