Bonus: A Conversation with Jen Miller

Audioboom Studios
About this episode
Today we're talking with Jen Miller, journalist, author of five books, and the reporter and co-producer behind Blood Will Tell, a new limited series podcast from Wondery and Campside Media.

Jen's work has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and many other esteemed publications. She holds both an MFA in fiction and a master's in journalism from Columbia. She's also spent the last decade running the Senior Media Fellows Program at the American Immigration Council, helping over a thousand people tell their own immigration stories in their own words.

The story that brought her to us today started with a Washington Post assignment about Shakespeare being used as therapy in prisons and ended with her down a rabbit hole that led to the creation of Blood Will Tell. The podcast overs the true story of 18-year-old Anh and Trung, Vietnamese-American identical twin brothers in San Jose, California and a birthday party that turned fatal.
