About the Episode
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof has spent his career reporting on death and darkness around the world — and yet, in his new memoir, Kristof says he is "chasing hope." The author speaks with Walter Isaacson about that, and the people he has met along the way who give him reason to remain optimistic.
