Pub Date is a podcast dedicated to the love of books, and the authors who bring them into the world! In today’s episode, Copper Founder & CEO, Allison Trowbridge, sits down with author, producer, and professor– Reza Aslan! Reza’s new book, ‘An American Martyr in Persia: The Epic Life and Tragic Death of Howard Baskerville’ just launched into the world and it is a fascinating biography of a life that will have you saying, “I can’t believe this is a true story!”
In this episode, Reza breaks down what he found extraordinary enough about Howard Baskerville’s life that as an author, Reza decided to devote years of his life to getting this story down in the form of a book– even though his original plan was to write it as a screenplay! Reza also reveals that he tells his creative writing students that there are only ‘2 genres’ of writing… listen in to find out what they are. Reza dives into his researching process, why he believes this book is more important than ever, and how he sees history coming full circle in our current social and political moment.
Today’s episode is for you if you’re a history buff ready to dive into an amazing biography, or an aspiring author looking to get into writing such a work! Reza is a masterful storyteller who helps us to remember how connected we are to each other, both through a historical lens and through the ways our stories are intertwined even now. This encouraging episode will definitely make you think, and we’d be willing to bet that you’re going to learn something new! Plus, Reza considers this book the most personal book he’s ever written; the powerful reasoning behind that sentiment will have you sitting down to write and make a major impact of your own.
