We're busy working on stories to remind you how phenomenal our world is! Coming up next season: Amy Tan, author of six New York Times best-selling novels, takes us into her back yard to meet the wild birds whose vibrant individual lives populate the pages of her new non-fiction book. Hmong American writer Kao Kalia Yang shares her discovery that her humble factory-worker father had a voice of music and poetry that spoke for his people. Francis Collins, the scientist who led the Human Genome Project, describes miraculous discoveries in genetic research, including advances in the treatment of cystic fibrosis and progeria. All that and more is coming up in Season 9 of Constant Wonder, kicking off August 28.
