Human Powered: In Conversation with Alexandria Delcourt

Wisconsin Humanities Season 4 Episode 6

Each of us is experiencing a million things on any given day. Alexandria Delcourt believes that how we move from the chaos and overwhelm of life to understand ourselves, and each other, comes down to telling a good story. Alexandria helped to produce some of readers’ favorite Love Wisconsin stories for Wisconsin Humanities, is the current editor of Our Lives magazine, and leads the Isthmus Writing Workshop. Co-hosts Jen Rubin and Jessica Becker sit down to talk with Alexandria about her pivot from science to creative writing, what she has learned as an editor and educator, and how to do the most important stories of our lives justice.
