Stanton, the creator of Humans of New York, came on the show to
talk about how he wrote his way to five published books and 13
million Instagram followers. Along the way, the man basically
invented his own genre of biography. There are short stories, there
are long stories. What he would do every single day is he'd walk
out onto the streets of New York, photograph people, and interview
them. He would say, "How do I tell this person's story?" What he
discovered is that these people's stories were stories about the
human condition itself. It went completely viral. So if you're
interested in thinking about how to tell better stories about
people, how to find your voice as a writer, then you're going to
like this conversation. About the host Hey! I’m David Perell and
I’m a writer, teacher, and podcaster. I believe writing online is
one of the biggest opportunities in the world today. For the first
time in human history, everybody can freely share their ideas with
a global audience. I seek to help as many people publish their
writing online as possible. Follow me Apple:
