#32: Zoe Chace

Zoe Chace has no problem walking up to strangers with headphones on and mike poised. It’s how she captured her duPont-Columbia winning story, “Ep 600 Will I Know Anyone at This Party?” which gives a firsthand account of the immigration push back taking place in America today. Chace is a producer at the radio program and podcast, This American Life. She reveals her tips for getting into the Republican convention without credentials, persuading people to talk when they don’t want to, and managing fears of getting fired. Check out the “Deploraball” episode referenced in this week’s podcast. And see Chace and our other winners accept their batons at the 2018 duPont-Columbia ceremony.
