Sarah Ruhl on Lessons from the Teachers Who Shaped Her
Manage episode 499219635 series 2355375
Playwright Sarah Ruhl has collected wisdom from her mentors, from Pulitzer winners to driving instructors, in her new book Lessons from My Teachers. She joins Mike to talk about the art of learning, the balance between control and letting go, writing obliquely about grief (sometimes through a dog’s eyes), and why you should thank the people who taught you before it’s too late. Also, gerbils, almonds, and the occasional vibrator play. Produced by Corey Wara
