Visionary NPR leader Kevin Klose, who presided over a golden era, has died

Former NPR President and CEO Kevin Klose died Wednesday at the age of 85. During his tenure, NPR received a multimillion-dollar gift from the late Joan Kroc that enabled the network to weather financial crises.

Klose led NPR for a decade starting in 1998, a period of incredible growth for the public media network.
