Elizabeth Hess, Katie Palmer, and Lucas Tahiruzzaman Syed of “Love Trade”

Elizabeth Hess was an art critic before she began writing about animals. I love speaking with writers whose careers have evolved as they have written; Elizabeth is a beautiful example. Beginning by writing as an art critic, she found her way to writing about animals and the cultures that surround them. She's won awards for her coverage of the municipal animal control program in NYC, and is the author of Lost and Found and Nim Chimpsky, which became the documentary Project Nim.  We talk about the incredibly exhaustive research that went into her books, how she followed the trail of interviews to get to the bottom of Nim's story, and the new exploration of an animal-based subculture that she's writing about now. If you love animals, this will be an especially engaging episode, as we learn how writing can change animal's lives for the better.    Show notes with links | This episode sponsored by Scrivener Hosted on Acast.
