David Grann: Mojito (2 ounces white rum, 1 ounce lime juice, sugar, mint, topped with club soda)

David discusses his early years covering politics on Capitol Hill, how his mother paved the way for women executives in publishing as the first woman CEO of a major publisher and how she eventually agreed that writing was a good career choice for David, describes conversations with Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese to review details of KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, mentions other authors of narrative history who he admires, identifies his first and most trusted reader of his early drafts, reveals how he organizes his thinking for new projects, names the person from history he’d most like to interview, and gives a tiny and cryptic hint about his upcoming book.
