You’ve heard of Jackson Pollock. But you may have never heard of Lee Krasner, an artist, Pollock’s wife, and the woman who made him famous – and in doing so, changed everything about the landscape of modern art. This is a story of love, of power, of alcoholism, of brutality, and an ill-timed death. This 6-episode series, hosted by curator, author, and broadcaster Katy Hessel, offers an inside look into two of the greatest artists of the 20th century, and how their vision impacts ours. And listen back to season one, where host Helen Molesworth revisits the artist Ana Mendieta’s death and the trial that followed, and interrogates both the silence and the protest that have accompanied her story ever since. Death of an Artist Season 1 is a co-production between Pushkin Industries, Somethin’ Else, and Sony Music Entertainment. Death of an Artist Season 2 is a co-production between Pushkin Industries and Samizdat Audio.

Here's an episode from Deep Cover: The Nameless Man, which tells the epic tale of two federal agents who investigate a rumor about a murder that supposedly took place 15 years prior. It is also the story of a family searching for answers about why their brother was killed. These two storylines collide in a courtroom in Philadelphia, where murder, memory, and morality go on trial.
