Casey Schwartz, ATTENTION: A LOVE STORY

Published: April 7, 2020, 9 a.m.

b'Casey Schwartz is the author of\\xa0Attention: A Love Story\\xa0which is part memoir and part comprehensive journalistic exploration of our culture\'s flagging ability to pay attention. Casey writes about her struggle with Adderall, her parents, psychedelic science, and the four incredible writers who inspire her. Casey and I discussed the idea that Silicon Valley is literally hijacking us through our phones and why are we giving away our attention so casually. Casey shared her personal experience with the #MeToo movement and the rock bottom moment that ended up yielding the best possible outcome for her. I have a long-time personal connection with Casey\'s mom, author Marie Brenner, and I loved being able to share my memories with Casey.\\xa0
