Former Washington Post columnist, former NPR All Things Considered host, founder of The Race Card Project, author of Our Hidden Conversations: What Americans Really Think About Race (January 2024).
Throughout Norris’ accomplished career, her efforts to promote conversation about race have resulted in her critically acclaimed book, The Grace of Silence: A Memoir. She received accolades for a Peabody Award-winning initiative, “The Race Card Project,” which fosters conversation among individuals about their differences. Norris was previously the director of “The Bridge”—the Aspen Institute's program on race, cultural identity and inclusion—which addresses some of America's most complex issues by encouraging people to explore and engage with differing perspectives. Norris is also host of Your Mama’s Kitchen, a new podcast produced by Higher Ground, Barack and Michelle Obama’s media company, which explores the complexities of family life through conversations about guests’ childhood home meals.
