From Lab to Headline: Effective Communication Strategies to Engage with Media

Speaker: Flora Lichtman

Flora Lichtman has been working in radio, podcasts, and video for almost 20 years. She created and hosted the podcast “Every Little Thing,” which ran for five years and published more than 200 episodes. Previously, she wrote for Bill Nye’s Netflix show “Bill Nye Saves the World” and co-directed the Emmy-nominated video series “Animated Life” on The New York Times Op-Docs channel, though it lost to Oprah. Flora also created and hosted “The Adaptors” podcast about climate change, worked as a video editor and substitute host at public radio’s Science Friday, and co-wrote a book on the science of annoyingness. Long ago, she worked for a NATO oceanographic lab in Italy. During the lab’s research expeditions, she lived on a ship where apertivi were served on the top deck, hoisted there via pulley by the ship’s chef.
