Pulitzer prize-winning author Tracy Kidder (right) stopped by our studios this morning for an interview with Anchor Jeb Sharp. Kidder was here to talk about his new book, entitled Strength in What Remains. The book tells the story of Deo, a survivor of the decades long civil war that ripped apart the central African nation of Burundi. Kidder follows Deo’s story as the young African arrives in New York City having fled the ethnic violence in his country.
