I understand pain differently in all forms. I think it made me a hope. It made me a better editor and a better writer. What's really strange is that I sometimes feel that It has been some of the best writing I've ever done, which feels really awful in some strange way that it can write to write beautiful sentences. And yet, in some way, I think it's about honoring her with them.

I want so much for people to know her. But yes, I think even now when I'm working, I worry, am I giving enough to Hana? Hana needs a lot right now. Can I drop everything when she gets home for the day and pick it back up later at night? Do I just sacrifice, let's say, sleep? Maybe I just won't sleep as much. There is this sense that it's impossible to do both.

But I was in a really, really fortunate position in the most unfortunate of times to be working with a team of people who constantly said to me, if you need to take a break, take a break. If you want to step away and take a leave of absence, take a leave of absence. And that was very fortunate because it allowed me to be present and advocate for Orly in the hospital and outside of it.

Yes, in some way, yes. And I worked with... I was privileged to get to work with Rachel on both two audio projects for The New York Times and at her first essay for us. I met her... across the airwaves, the week of October 7th. And what was remarkable to me was at the end of our conversation, and it didn't make it into our audio production, was she said she was glad that it was me.

She'd read the Orly stories. And she was sorry for what I had been through. And it was really a remarkable moment of someone going through tremendous trauma, being able to step outside themselves and then offer empathy outside of their space.

I produced a number of the hostage stories that we ran, and I've also worked with Palestinians, because I do think there is a commonality of loss and grief and pain that transcends conflict and to some degree is possibly... one way out of it. Seeing our human connection feels to me one of the most important things that we can do right now.
