Episode 508: Erika Hayasaki
Erika Hayasaki has written for\xa0The New York Times Magazine,\xa0Wired, and\xa0The Atlantic. Her new book is\xa0Somewhere Sisters: A Story of Adoption, Identity, and the Meaning of Family.\n\u201cI don\u2019t subscribe to the belief that it\u2019s our story because we\u2019re the journalist that wrote it \u2014 especially when people are sharing these really intimate, deep, painful moments. That is not my story. That\u2019s their story that they've collaborated in a way with me to share through these interviews.\u201d\nShow notes:\n\n@ErikaHayasaki\n\nerikahayasaki.com\n\n\xa0Hayasaki on Longform\n\nHayasaki\u2019s\xa0Atlantic\xa0archive\n\n04:00\xa0"Hiroshima"\xa0(John Hersey \u2022 New Yorker \u2022 Aug. 1946)\n\n12:00\xa0"A deadly hush in Room 211 \u2014 then the killer returned"\xa0(Los Angeles Times \u2022 April 2007)\n\n16:00\xa0"A Criminal Mind"\xa0(California Sunday Magazine \u2022 Oct. 2015)\n\n17:00\xa0"In a Perpetual Present"\xa0(Wired \u2022 April 2016)\n\n18:00\xa0Somewhere Sisters\xa0(Algonquin Books \u2022 2022)\n\n19:00\xa0"Identical Twins Hint at How Environments Change Gene Expression"\xa0(The Atlantic \u2022 May 2018)\n\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
