TRAVEL ITCH RADIO

Twenty-six miles from mainland California, the sun-splashed Catalina Island has long issued a siren call to celebrities and tourists seeking seclusion. When owned by the Wrigley family, Catalina hosted spring training for the Chicago Cubs -- a golden-voiced broadcaster named Ronald (Dutch) Reagan. Others with roots in Catalina were Western author Zane Grey and movie star Marilyn Monroe. Hear more on Thursday, April 21, when TRAVEL ITCH RADIO presents Jim Luttjohann, president and CEO of Love Catalina, and Gail Fornasiere, deputy director of external affairs for the Catalina Musem for Art & History. Listen live at 8p EDT when Dan Schlossberg and Maryellen Nugent Lee conduct the interviews on iTunes and BlogTalkRadio.com or check out the archived show later on Facebook.
