Forget to mention an interview source that works well for me: colleagues in your industry. Many people shy away from their competitors, but they are usually very willing to share and offer a needed different perspective on the industry.

@ Linette: I ask myself what I would like to find out about the topic and use that as a basis for asking questions. If the topic has been in the news recently, you could go with that angle. HTH.

I have a couple interviews lined up, but what I’m terrified of is asking the questions. How do you know what to ask in an interview? I’m always terrified they’re going to think I’m an idiot if I ask the wrong questions.

There’s not much out there, if you do a Google search. Most of the results are for job interview questions.

@ Melissa: When I post a query on ProfNet, I always specify that I am looking for someone willing to be interviewed by e-mail.

A professional association may have members wiling to give interviews. I now have a contact at the National Association of Social Workers in Washington and she has been very helpful in helping me find interview subjects.
