Ceil Muller considers herself a public radio "lifer." What began in an Antioch College work co-op at Pacific's WBAI-FM in New York turned into a lifetime of trying to capture the ephemeral nature of sound. She has worked for National Public Radio, the National Council for the Traditional Arts, and KQED, among others. Her own The Kiss and the Dying won a 2003 Gracie award from American Women in Radio and TV.
