Finding What Fascinates With Julie Klam – This Week's Six Pixels Of Separation Podcast

Episode #542 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Mirum Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.

Our team at Mirum has launched a interesting program for InterContinental Hotels & Resorts. It’s a series that takes places across multiple InterContinental properties to tell stories that will get consumers excited about what travel brings into their lives (beyond visiting a different city or country). The first part of this program has been focused on the theme of “fascination.” With that, our team connected with famed bestselling author, Julie Klam, at the InterContinental New York Barclay’s Gin Parlour for a conversation about the power of fascination. Truthfully, I had nothing to do with this project, but jumped at the opportunity to have Julie on this show. I’ve been a fan of her work for a long time. Julie Klam interned at Late Night with David Letterman and went on to write for the likes of Rolling Stone, Harper’s Bazaar, and The New York Times Magazine. She also worked on the VH1 television show Pop-Up Video, where she earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Special Class Writing. She’s the author of many narrative non-fiction books like Friendkeeping, Love At First Bark, You Had Me At Woof and Please Excuse My Daughter. Her next book, The Stars In Our Eyes, will look at celebrities, memes and what makes us all so enraptured by those who have influence. So what makes us fascinated? Do we all have the same ability to capture attention like celebrities? Where do great stories come from? Enjoy the conversation…
