Marian Bull on Journalism, Food & the Ways We Remember

Humorous and insightful, rigorous and celebratory, February resident Marian Bull’s ('21) writing is driven by her insatiable curiosity and her commitment to personal and collective delight. In this episode of Rope Walker, Marian talks with us about joie de vivre, her nonlinear journey to journalism, the mnemonic qualities of great food writing, and the challenges of writing memoir. The episode starts with a discussion of what brought her to Corsicana: the nonfiction memoir project about her childhood growing up in a live magic company.
