Recorded November 9, 2023 In conversation with Errin Haines Stephanie Land is the author of the bestseller Maid, a memoir that “nails the sheer terror that comes with being poor, the exhausting vigilance of knowing that any misstep or twist of fate will push you deeper into the hole” (The Boston Globe).
