Hardy Green: 'The Company Town'
Hershey bars, Tabasco sauce, Spam, even Google—all come from a "company town," where one business dominates the local economy and culture. Seattle has in the past had the same designation—and though most would say we've diversified in the last 25 years, there are still a handful of players that cast undeniably long shadows. These towns are the essence of America, says former BusinessWeek associate editor Hardy Green, who analyzes how the American economy has grown and changed, and how the company town has reflected the best and worst of American capitalism. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with University Book Store. Series media sponsorship provided by Publicola. Series supported by The Boeing Company Charitable Trust and the RealNetworks Foundation.
