Sinopsis

Show #182 | Guest: Jessica Bruder | Show Summary: For her most recent book, Nomadland, Jessica Bruder spent months living in a camper van, documenting itinerant Americans who gave up traditional housing and hit the road full time, enabling them to travel from job to job and carve out a place for themselves in our precarious economy. The project spanned three years and more than 15,000 miles of driving—from coast to coast and from Mexico to the Canadian border.     Jessica has been teaching at Columbia Journalism School since 2008. Her long-form stories have won a James Aronson Award for Social Justice Journalism and a Deadline Club Award.
