Donald Knaack is a musician and is also known as the
"junk man." He creates music using pots and pans, radiator coils, and
PVC pipe. His unusual instrumentation has taken him around the country, and
also into Vermont schools where
he adds environmental lessons to his performances. Earlier this week, Governor
Jim Douglas honored Knaack for his unique school program. He spoke with VPR's Jane Lindholml about his work.
