Pulitzer Prize-winning data journalist Mona Chalabi joins MIT anthropologist Graham M. Jones and wisdom historian Deepak Ramola at the MIT Museum to explore how numbers, art, and storytelling reveal the true nature of our lives. The conversation centers on Chalabi's new book, Ten Lives, which follows Americans across different income levels to show how money shapes who we are. Together, they will discuss bridging the gap between statistics and human experience to help us understand ourselves and one another.
