Talks & Entertainment

Join award-winning NPR journalist Ari Shapiro for an evening of conversation about his memoir and tales from his storied broadcast career.

The beloved host of “All Things Considered” is known for his adventurous spirit and insatiable curiosity, which has served him well whether he’s traveling on Air Force One with President Obama, navigating war-torn countries, or following community leaders fighting for social justice. His new memoir, The Best Strangers in the World, details all of this and more in captivating essays and is a true love letter to journalism. Shapiro will be joined by special guests as he shares insights from his life spent listening.

Shapiro will be in conversation with Audie Cornish, an anchor and correspondent for CNN and host of the CNN Audio podcast, “The Assignment.”
