Fresh Air will mark its 20th anniversary as a daily national program on National Public Radio tomorrow (3 and 7 p.m. on WHYY, 90.9) with a collection of interviews that host Terry Gross left to producers to choose. Among them: actors Uta Hagen, Jon Lovitz and Sacha Baron Cohen; singer-songwriter Dion; and New York Times reporter Dexter Filkins. Gross started hosting Fresh Air at WHYY in 1975.

Briefly noted

Cameras are to roll tomorrow at Snackbar, the boutique restaurant off Rittenhouse Square, as chef Jonathan McDonald hosts New York chef Paul Liebrandt, with whom he worked at Gilt in Manhattan. Liebrandt, a proponent of the high-science-meets-culinary movement known as molecular gastronomy, briefly consulted at Philly's Striped Bass. Footage will be part of an unnamed HBO project.

Ron Jaworski and Joe Theismann, whom Jaws is replacing on ESPN's Monday Night Football, will be on the links at the Atlantic City Country Club today and tomorrow for the Ron Jaworski Celebrity Golf Tournament benefiting United Way.
