David Von Drehle: NYT Best-Selling Author of “The Book of Charlie”
Dec 19, 2023•48 min
Episode description
Kansas City resident and New York Times Best Selling author David Von Drehle wrote “The Book of Charlie” for his kids. Little did he know the impact it would have on people of all ages.
David talks about his rise from the youngest sports writer in the history of the Denver Post, to Time Magazine and Deputy Opinion Editor of the Washington Post. But it’s a friendship with his 102 year old Kansas City neighbor, Dr. Charles White, that inspired “The Book of Charlie.” In our opinion, it should be required reading for everyone.
