Carol Kaufmann at the AARP Bulletin:

Radio host Garrison Keillor, 68, told the AARP Bulletin that he’s planning to retire in the spring of 2013. But the host of A Prairie Home Companion says that he must find his replacement first. Keillor created his show in 1974 in Minnesota. It is now broadcast on 590 public radio stations across the country and is heard by over 4 million people each week.

Keillor is an icon of public radio. I will miss his voice on Sunday afternoon, when our family enjoys A Prairie Home Companion.
