Benjamen Walker is an American radio personality, known best for his monologues in the style of Joe Frank. His "Your Radio Nightlight" was broadcast on WZBC in Boston at irregular intervals from 2000-2004. Walker's current series, "Benjamen Walker's Theory of Everything", is a hybrid documentary format that retains many elements of personal storytelling and drama from "Your Radio Nightlight".

In February 2006 Theory of Everything began being distributed as an internet-only podcast as part of National Public Radio's alt.NPR offerings, switching to a shorter format and erratic release schedule. As of March 2007 the podcast is on hiatus and no new episodes have been released. Benjamen now works at WNYC Public Radio, where he helped produce [http://www.wnyc.org/streetshots Street Shots] , the multi-platform series exploring New York street photography. The series includes a video short profiling Magnum Photos photographer Bruce Gilden, which was a featured video on You Tube. He can also be heard in WFMU in Jersey City, where he has brought his Theory of Everything to Monday mornings.
