Adam Johnson (born July 12, 1967) is a Pulitzer Prize winning American novelist and short story writer. He won the Pulitzer for his 2012 novel, The Orphan Master's Son. He is also a professor of English at Stanford University with a focus on creative writing.
Johnson was born in South Dakota and raised in Arizona. He earned a BA in Journalism from Arizona State University in 1992; an MFA from the writing program at McNeese State University in 1996; and a PhD in English from Florida State University in 2000. Johnson is currently a San Francisco writer and associate professor in creative writing at Stanford University. He founded the Stanford Graphic Novel Project and was named "one of the nation's most influential and imaginative college professors" by Playboy Magazine.
Johnson is the author of the novel The Orphan Master's Son (2012), which Michiko Kakutani, writing in The New York Times, has called, "a daring and remarkable novel, a novel that not only opens a frightening window on the mysterious kingdom of North Korea, but one that also excavates the very meaning of love and sacrifice." Johnson's interest in the topic arose from his sensitivity to the language of propaganda, wherever it occurs. Johnson also wrote the short-story collection Emporium and the novel Parasites Like Us, which won a California Book Award in 2003. His work has been published in Esquire, Harper's Magazine, Tin House, and The Paris Review, as well as Best New American Voices and The Best American Short Stories. Recently his short story "George Orwell was a Friend of Mine" was published by 21st Editions in The Janus Turn with photographs in platinum by George Tice.

Today we’re dedicating the whole show to an area of art that many would consider to be the most central to our culture, values, and beliefs: literature. We’re talking to four writers whose works include an autobiographical account of escape from North Korea, fictions based in North Korea and South Africa, and a history of two palace museums in Taiwan and mainland China. First though, we head to a country that few outsiders can get to know closely or even enter easily: North Korea. Any trip there, even if you do get a permit, is likely to be closely supervised by individuals who will go to great pains to ensure you will see only what you are supposed to. And report only what they want. At the Hong Kong International Literary Festival early in November two very different authors took two ver...

North Korea, arguably the most isolated country in the world, poses unique challenges for journalists. Access to the country is severely limited and even when a journalist is able to gain entry, the secretive and repressive nature of the state significantly limits what can be learned. Still, despite these difficult conditions, the realities of North Korean life are increasingly finding their way into various media, from newspaper reporting and on-line media to thinly fictionalized accounts. This panel will take a multi-faceted look at the coverage of North Korea through the journalist (represented by 2012 Shorenstein Journalism Award winner Barbara Demick), the editor, the development/relief worker, and the novelist. Panelists include: Barbara Demick, has been Beijing bureau chief for t...

MP3: http://www.fdrpodcasts.com/#/3436/the-truth-about-zootopia- Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/stefan-molyneux/fdr-3436-the-truth-about-zootopia In this highly theoretical Zootopia universe, all the animals live in peace and harmony with each other, at the price of having nothing to eat except the odd illicit popsicle. Predators have overcome their natural instincts, have evolved past the hunger to chew on prey, and seem to have sublimated their dominant instincts into a more dangerous thirst for political power. The grim reality soon to be learned by the West is that just because you forget about nature, does not mean that nature forgets about you. Freedomain Radio is 100% funded by viewers like you.

We recently visited Whitney Terrell to get him to sign a basketball to give away in our Booketology tournament of books. What he didn't know is that we'd be taking our camera inside his office to find out what a working writer's study looks like. Whitney's a nice guy, so he gave us the nickel tour. Then he signed the basketball. Catch Whitney when the Writers at Work series continues on Thursday, April 26, 2012. He'll be interviewing short story writer and novelist Adam Johnson, author of Parasites Like Us and The Orphan Master's Son.

Author Adam Johnson's second novel, "The Orphan Master's Son," is a fictional account of a young man's passage through North Korea -- a country unknown, unseen and, at times, futile before the death of its "Dear Leader," Kim Jong-il. Johnson and Jeffrey Brown discuss his interpretation of the country and the late dictator.
Winner of the Pulitzer and many other prizes for The Orphan Master’s Son, his second novel, Johnson teaches writing at Stanford and is also an accomplished writer of shorter fiction. The six stories of his second collection roam the world, ferreting out narratives of unexpected challenges. Two North Koreans struggle to understand how to live free lives in Seoul. A former Stasi agent compulsively denies his past even as evidence of his lies keeps turning up. A dying woman rages against the family that will survive her. This is powerful work, at once dark and illuminating. Founded by Carla Cohen and Barbara Meade in 1984, Politics & Prose Bookstore is Washington, D.C.'s premier independent bookstore and cultural hub, a gathering place for people interested in reading and discussing books.

Today we’re dedicating the whole show to an area of art that many would consider to be the most central to our culture, values, and beliefs: literature. We’re talking to four writers whose works include an autobiographical account of escape from North Korea, fictions based in North Korea and South Africa, and a history of two palace museums in Taiwan and mainland China. First though, we head to a country that few outsiders can get to know closely or even enter easily: North Korea. Any trip there, even if you do get a permit, is likely to be closely supervised by individuals who will go to great pains to ensure you will see only what you are supposed to. And report only what they want. At the Hong Kong International Literary Festival early in November two very different authors took two ver...
