Cast and Creators of The Band’s Visit with Michael Paulson

Michael Paulson is an American journalist. From 2000 to 2010 he covered religion for The Boston Globe. Since 2010, he has worked at the New York Times, where he initially continued his religion coverage. His work there reflected his early politics roots and continued to tie religion to national issues. Since April 2015, he has covered theater at the New York Times. While working for The Boston Globe, Paulson was responsible for covering the world's faith and spirituality. Prior to this, his career included seven years working as a city hall reporter, a state house bureau chief, and as a Washington correspondent at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. I wanted to hear what someone who just joined our industry at a high level thought of how we were doing, how accepting we were to newcomers, and what it was like to get stories out of our notoriously tight-lipped  industry.Michael didn’t disappoint, and answered all the above and then some including . . . The differences (and surprising similarities) between covering theater and religion. How the New York Times is competing with Candy Crush . . . and if it’s winning. Is all press really good press? How theater and the newspaper industry are facing similar challenges. His favorite Broadway stories so far . . . and the story he’d like to write about, but hasn’t gotten the scoop . . . yet.
