Just wanted to remind everyone that WTCI has two exciting premiers tonight starting at 8; Southern Accents 17th season and the A List with Alison Lebovitz.

Southern Accents will start off the night with journeys to Fort Payne, Alabama to visit a glassblower who has garnered national attention with his work at Orbix Hot Glass, Lines Orchids in Signal Mountain, Tennessee, a photography workshop with Tom and Pat Cory, and the beautiful Booth Western Art Museum in Cartersville, Georgia.

The premiere episode of the A List will feature part one of a two part interview with Jon Meacham, best-selling author, editor of Newsweek and Chattanooga native. Meacham’s latest book, American Lion: Andrew Jackson in the White House, hit the New York Times best seller list when it debuted in November 2008. Lebovitz talks with Meacham about this latest best seller, his perspective on our nation’s history and future, life as editor of Newsweek, and his ties to Chattanooga. Part two of the Meacham interview will debut on February 12th.
