StoryCorps in KC: Wendell Isaac and Rita Flynn

By edited by Laura Spencer

Kansas City, MO – At StoryCorps recording booths across the country, friends and loved ones interview each other about their lives. Each Wednesday during NPR's Morning Edition, we'll bring you a story recorded at the MobileBooth in Kansas City. Catholic Charities case manager Rita Flynn brought her client Wendell Isaac. Wendell was 17 when he was sent to prison, and after serving 25 years, he talks about adjusting to life outside the prison walls.
