Richard Price and Lorraine Adams

Richard Price is the acclaimed author of novels including Clockers and Lush Life. As a screenwriter, he’s frequently collaborated with HBO, winning awards for his writing on The Wire and most recently working on the adaptation of Stephen King’s The Outsider.

Lorraine Adams is an American journalist and award-winning novelist. She’s contributed to the New York Times Book Review and the Washington Post, and in 1992 won the Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting that led to the Texas police being charged with extensive misconduct and abuses of power.

Price and Adams share a fascination with the gritty underside of American idealism. They also happen to be married. For this conversation, they’ll join us from their home in Harlem to discuss their respective literary and journalistic careers and the influence of their creative partnership with host Rachael Brown, journalist and creator of the true crime podcast Trace.
