Robert Resnik is known to VPR listeners as the host of All the Traditions, a folk music show on Sunday evenings on VPR. But you may not know that Resnik is also a reference librarian at the Fletcher Free Library in Burlington. It was in that capacity that he was asked to research and write a book about some of Burlington’s most notable characters.
The book is “Legendary Locals of Burlington,” and it’s just been published by Arcadia Press. Resnik spoke with Vermont Edition about some of the colorful people he profiles in this book.
