dbo:abstract | The Infinite Mind was a national radio series that aired one hour a week, from 1998 to 2008. It was independently produced and distributed by the Peabody Award-winning Lichtenstein Creative Media. The program was first hosted by Frederick K. Goodwin (the former director of the National Institute of Mental Health) from 1998 to ?, and then by best selling author Peter D. Kramer from ? to 2008. Goodwin also served as guest host on various shows during this latter time period. Public radio's John Hockenberry provided weekly commentary. The program was dropped from NPR's satellite feed after news stories reported that Goodwin had a conflict of interest. Though Goodwin drew on his thirty-plus years of clinical experience when interviewing guests who sometimes discussed pharmaceutical treatments for mental illness, it was revealed that he had been receiving financial compensation from pharmaceutical companies for consulting and physician education. The program examined many aspects of neuroscience, mental health and the mind; and it had nearly one million listeners weekly. It received 30 major journalism honors, including a UN Media Award for a program on "War," [war in general or a particular one?] five National Headliner Awards, and three Gracie Awards. According to the show's producers, "The Infinite Mind" looked at "how the brain works, and why it sometimes does not, covering mental health, neuroscience and the mind/body connection from scientific, cultural and policy perspectives." The series was a non-profit production with a staff of 10, including three producers, and was reportedly budgeted for approximately $20,000 per episode. Major underwriters included the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the MacArthur Foundation, William P. Grant Foundation, and unrestricted educational grants from Eli Lilly & Company, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline. According to the New York Times [reference needed], the program went from 168 public radio stations in 2001, with an average audience of about 500,000, to 240 stations and twice that many listeners in 2008. [ this sentence seems extraneous>>Because it was syndicated, it ran at different times in each market.] Lichtenstein Creative Media's president Bill Lichtenstein was the show's creator and executive producer and June Peoples served as show producer.
