A request for help prompted award-winning investigative journalist to reach out to his friend's friend– a woman who had chosen the exact time and date she planned to end her life. What followed evolved into a daily six-month long conversation that examined cultural language, personal agency and the right to die. In this episode, Dowie discusses how his relationship with poet Judith Tannenbaum profoundly changed his life.
Mark Dowie's memoir, Judith Letting Go: Six Months in the World's Smallest Death Cafe is his seventh book.
