I’m a writer who loves exploring questions of care, morality, and the human condition. I write a popular weekly newsletter called Examined Family and have published four books, most recently, Learning in Public: Lessons for a Racially Divided America from My Daughter’s School.
I’m the author of four books, most recently, Learning in Public, a popular newsletter, called Examined Family, host of “The Wise Unknown” podcast from PRX, and co-host of the Slate “How To!” podcast. I’m also a co-founder of the Solutions Journalism Network and FRESH Speakers, and the Storyteller-in-Residence at The Holding Co. My literal happy place is our co-housing community in Oakland, Calif. My metaphorical happy place is asking people questions.
