Thanks to Americans for the Arts, check out this video for a pretty fascinating conversation between Nigel Lythgoe (of "So You Think You Can Dance" and "American Idol") and actor/activist Alec Baldwin on the state of the arts today. The discussion between the actor and producer/judge (and Dizzyfeet founder) examines the arts in America from a big-picture and current standpoint, as well as revealing what inspires them to work in the arts themselves (check it out to discover what those inspirations are).
