During an earlier previous stint at the Globe, Graham was a feature writer, culture columnist, and critic.
Graham has been a contributor to several CNN Original Series, the acclaimed documentaries documenting the decades of the 20th century.
Ms. Graham was a featured commentator in the four-part original documentary, “1968: The Year That Changed America,” also on CNN and in Netflix’s “ReMastered: The Two Killings of Sam Cooke,” about the legendary soul singer and civil rights activist who was murdered in 1964.
