His stand against Soviet Communism landed him in prison, and the annals of literary history. Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who exposed the tyranny of Soviet rule in classics such as "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" and "Gulag Archipelago", died this week at the age of 89. We speak with legendary broadcaster Marvin Kalb about Solzhenitsyn's legacy.
