About this listen

An expert in Post-Conflict Reconstruction Bathsheba Crocker and remembering Cecile de Brunhoff on this edition of Fresh Air. Bathsheba Crocker is co-director of the Post-Conflict Reconstruction Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. She'll discuss many of the questions surrounding reconstruction in Iraq: who will be in charge of reconstruction? What role will the United Nations have? Who will get the construction contracts? Who will step in and lead Iraq? And who will pay for construction? Crocker is a resident of the Center for Strategic and International Studies International Security Program. We remember Cecile de Brunhoff who died April 7th at the age of 99. It was the bedtime story she made up and told her sons in 1930 that became the basis for the world-famous Babar the Elephant stories. Her husband Laurent de Brunhoff, an artist and illustrator, wrote down the story and provided the illustrations. Terry Gross talked with their son, author and illustrator Laurent de Brunhoff. He followed his father's footsteps, and for the past 40 years has written and drawn the continuing adventures of Babar the Elephant.
