S2.4 Peter Guzzardi on the One New Person podcast - 2019 Interview
“Emeralds of Oz” with Peter Guzzardi
SUBSCRIBE:
Peter Guzzardi is a legendary book editor who worked with Stephen Hawking on “A Brief History of Time,” Susan Cain on “Quiet,” and Deepak Chopra on “Ageless Body, Timeless Mind,” just to name a few.
After 40 years in publishing Peter has authored his first book, “Emeralds of Oz: Life Lessons from Over the Rainbow.”
In this episode we chat about what exactly an editor’s role is in the publishing process, the timeless wisdom contained in the Wizard of Oz, and Peter shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.
We had some Internet issues during this call, which took place in the middle of his book tour. It’s a little wonky towards the beginning and again at the end, but crystal clear for the vast majority. I think you’ll find Peter’s warmth and insight transcends the occasional audio blip.
