Sarah Lewis: The Freedom in Failure

Curator and art historian Sarah Lewis (AB '01) will sit down with National Constitution Center President Jeffrey Rosen for a fascinating discussion about the flops, folds, setbacks, wipeouts, and hiccups that come before one achieves true success.

Sarah Lewis has served on President Barack Obama’s Arts Policy Committee, been selected for Oprah’s “Power List,” and is a faculty member at Yale University, School of Art in the MFA program. Her new book, The Rise: Creativity, the Gift of Failure, and the Search for Mastery is a layered, story-driven investigation of how innovation, discovery, and the creative progress are all spurred on by advantages gleaned from the improbable, the unlikely, even failure.
