In Conversation with Nicholas Kristof

Nicholas Kristof is one of the most well-known journalists and vital voices of our time. A winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, he wrote an op-ed column for The New York Times from 2001 to 2021 - and returned to the Times in August of 2022. According to The Washington Post, Nick "rewrote opinion journalism" with his emphasis on human rights abuses and social injustices globally. He's been called everything from the conscience of international journalism to the Indiana Jones of journalism. Nick is not only an incredible journalist and thought leader of our time, but he's also an advocate for the rights of women and girls worldwide. In 2009, he co-authored the No. 1 bestselling book Half the Sky with his wife, Sheryl, which digs deep into systemic gender inequity and has been hailed by many as a wake-up call to the realities and injustices women and girls face globally. I was so grateful for the opportunity to speak with Nick. In this conversation, we cover everything from today's polarized cultural climate to the fundamentals of storytelling to the most pressing issues facing women and girls today.
