More than 50,000 tons of debris blocked the shipping channel after the cargo ship Dali collided with the Key Bridge on March 26th. Six construction workers died in the bridge’s collapse.

We ask Jonathan Daniels, executive director of the Maryland Port Administration.

Hayes Gardner is an enterprise reporter for The Baltimore Sun. He’s been covering the Key Bridge collapse and clean-up and the plans to rebuild.

For many, the memorable element of the singing group The Mamas and the Papaswas Cass Elliot’sclear contralto. Cass Elliot was born Ellen Naomi Cohen in Baltimore in 1941, attended Forest Park High School in Northwest Baltimore, and left high school six weeks before graduation to find her show business fortune in New York. She was 32 when she died of a heart attack in London after a brilliant run at the Palladium in late July 1974.

Her daughter, Owen Elliot-Kugell, was 7 years old when her mother died, and has just published a memoir, "My Mama, Cass."We talk with her about it.
