James G. Robinson is the author of More Than We Expected (morethanamemoir.com), a memoir that Booklist calls “a giving, thought-provoking, and heart-tugging family saga.” In it, he details his five years parenting a child born with a serious heart defect, an experience that revealed unexpected truths about what it means to live, grow and heal. Since its publication, James has spoken frequently about the importance of humanity in medicine at numerous hospitals and medical conferences. James has spent nearly two decades at The New York Times, where he helps the company use data to better understand its audience. His essay “Road to Recovery,” published in the Times shortly after his son’s death, was selected as a notable essay in The Best American Travel Writing 2018. A lifelong resident of Brooklyn, NY, he has taught expository writing at NYU and is currently an adjunct professor at Columbia Journalism School. mbia Journalism School.
