The Pulitzer Prizes, in collaboration with The Library Foundation and PEN Across America presents Pulitzer on the Road: American Stories Then & Now. Author Hernan Diaz and journalist Eli Saslow will discuss the craft of storytelling in different genres through their Pulitzer Prize-winning journalism and historical fiction. The conversation will be moderated by Marjorie Miller, administrator of the Pulitzer Prizes.

Diaz and Saslow will explore the crucial aspect of truth in journalism as well as historical fiction; American loneliness and omnipotence; whose narratives get told and prioritized, and how they bring their characters to life on the page.
