A picture is worth a whole novel with Kerri Schlottman

Kerri Schottman has always been fascinated by photojournalism. She loves the stories that can be conveyed by a single picture and she’s had a great deal of exposure to the artists who take them. She found herself thinking about the concepts of how photos can remove the subject's voice in a way when we only look at a picture. This is how her new novel, Tell Me One Thing, came to be.

This is a deep discussion about where stories come from, how we find them, and why it matters who they are conveyed.
