Join us for a very special evening with the creator of the Emmy-winning documentary series "How We Got to Now," and bestselling author of ten books including Where Good Ideas Come From. 

Ted Talks calls Steven Johnson, "A dynamic writer and speaker [who] crafts captivating theories that draw on a dizzying array of disciplines, without ever leaving his audience behind.  His big-brained, multi-disciplinary theories make him one of his generation's more intriguing thinkers." 

Johnson was founder and Editor in Chief of FEED, one of the earliest and most interesting online magazines. He cofounded Patch, an intriguing website that maps online conversations to real-world neighborhoods, and outside.in -- and is an advisor to many other startups, including Medium and Jelly. Johnson is also the host and co-creator of the PBS and BBC series "How We Got to Now," and the host of the podcast "Wonderland."
