Jeff Wilson

Jeff Wilson jokes that he studied classical piano, receiving a music degree because "it looks good on a resume." As a narrator and host he has made his living working for projects as varied as a PBS children's show and a hazardous materials training film. His personal interests are his obsessions: carpentry, literature, tap dancing, canning, horses, country French cuisine, backpacking, auto mechanics, gardening, physics, solar energy, European bread baking, thrift-store shopping and the poetry of Wendell Berry. Jeff, his wife, and two daughters live in a perpetually half-renovated home in a small college town in Ohio. (Wilson hosts Restore America series 600 and up.)
