Crazed by the Music

Punk professor online

Vivien Goldman is quite a restless soul.  In addition to being an author (including the recent Book of Exodus about Bob Marley’s classic album), musician (who’s recently re-started up her musical career with kindred spirits Chicks on Speed) and professor at NYU (teaching courses in reggae and punk, where she’s witnessed a lot of first-hand history), she’s now returned to her work as a columnist, schooling virtual students online in a BBC America column.  What I want to know now is what ISN’T she doing in the music realm?  All that’s left is for her to become a Jay Z-like mogul and I wouldn’t bet against her getting there someday.
