A Recipe for Happiness

The Leonard Lopate Show | May 10, 2010
Ruth Reichl, editor in chief of Gourmet magazine, chocolatier Jacques Torres, and Mort Rosenblum, author of Chocolate: A Bittersweet Saga of Dark and Light, take us on a delicious journey in search of the most scrumptious chocolate experiences in New York. Next, curator and critic John Szarkowski. He acted as director of photography at the Museum of Modern Art in New York from 1962 to 1991, and joins us now to talk about a new exhibit of his photography. Then, author Sam Lipsyte discusses the premise of Home Land, a new novel written as an abjectly honest update to a high school alumni newsletter. Finally, in Happiness: Lessons from a New Science, economist Richard Layard investigates the root causes of happiness.
