Garrison Keillor was born in 1942 in Anoka, Minnesota, and began his radio career as a freshman at the University of Minnesota from which he became a national institution with his A Prairie Home Companion shows from Lake Wobegon. In 2017 he broke with MPR and though granted the rights to tour APHC, he is no longer affiliated with them.
