Summary

Legal scholars Jack Goldsmith and Tim Wu and actor Jeff Goldblum on this edition of Fresh Air. Jack Goldsmith and Tim Wu have co-written a book called Who Controls the Internet? Illusions of a Borderless World. It's about the Internet's challenge to governmental rule. They'll talk about recent controversies including Google in China and the government's role in policing eBay transactions. Jack Goldsmith is a professor of law at Harvard Law School. He was formerly Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Counsel of the Department of Justice, and special counsel to the General Counsel of the Department of Defense. Tim Wu is a professor of Law at Columbia Law School. He formerly worked in the Internet telecommunications industry.

Actor Jeff Goldblum's new film, Pittsburgh, follows Goldblum as he returns to his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to star alongside his new girlfriend in a two-week run of "The Music Man". Directors Chris Bradley and Kyle LaBrache filmed Goldblum's escape from celebrity, resulting in a genre-bending documentary with appearances by Ed Begley, Jr., Illeana Douglas, and Moby. Goldblum, who also produced Pittsburgh, has been acting since the early 1970s. His first major break came in the film The Big Chill, but he also had roles in many classic TV sitcoms like Laverne and Shirley and Starsky and Hutch, and he also had bit parts in the films Nashville and Annie Hall. Other memorable films include roles in The Fly, Earth Girls are Easy, and Jurassic Park. Goldblum continues to appear on TV sitcoms such as Will & Grace. (Broadcast Date: April 27, 2006)
