Meet New York Times journalist Susan Dominus for a discussion of her new book, The Family Dynamic: A Journey into the Mystery of Sibling Success (2025) in conversation with Lori Rotskoff. Hear insights from scientific research into the ongoing “nature-versus-nurture” question in explaining the rare families that boast multiple children who achieve extraordinary success, sometimes in widely varied fields. Find out what can be learned about their struggles and the enigmatic, often disregarded role of sibling relationships. Inspired by the accomplishments of the legendary Bronte sisters, Dominus researched and detailed the stories of six remarkable families whose children achieved great success in their fields, from Olympic athlete to award-winning novelist to successful entrepreneur. Time will be reserved for Q&A.
Please note: Registration includes a signed copy of the book.
