Listen "Forrest Claypool - The Daley Show"
Episode Synopsis
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.
