[edit] African Banjo
Goldberg was the first Canadian journalist to produce a work of long-form journalism, in the form of a radio documentary, about Canadian musicians exploring the African and early African American roots of the banjo through their music and instrument-making.[1]
Although the topic had been widely researched in the United States already, no in-depth reporting had previously been done into musicians like Jayme Stone: a Juno award winning banjo player whose bluegrass and West African fusion album, Africa to Appalachia, launched in June 2008.
Her work on this topic appeared on CBC Radio One, CBC Radio 3, and in the National Post.
