What Everyone’s Talking About: New York Times’ Charles Blow

Join us for a special evening with the author of the best-selling memoir Fire Shut Up in my Bones and one of the most incisive voices from the New York Times’ Op-Ed desk, Charles M. Blow. A prolific writer and on-air commentator on issues of race, politics, and the presidential election, Blow’s work is among the most widely read, shared, and debated today.

In this blockbuster series, Abigail Pogrebin–author and former 60 Minutes producer–unpacks the controversies, careers, and events in the news with fascinating guests. Abigail Pogrebin, a Yale graduate, is the author of Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk about Being Jewish and One and the Same: My Life as an Identical Twin and What I’ve Learned About Everyone’s Struggle to be Singular. Abigail began her career in broadcast journalism, producing for Fred W. Friendly, Charlie Rose, and Bill Moyers at PBS, and then for six years at CBS News’ 60 Minutes, first as a producer for Ed Bradley, then for Mike Wallace. Her new book, due in March 2017, chronicles her immersion into the Jewish calendar: My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays, One Wondering Jew. She lives in Manhattan with her husband and two children.
