Deborah Needleman on Handmade Beauty and Going to the Source

Deborah Needleman spent decades shaping how we think about design. She founded Domino and edited T: The New York Times Style Magazine before leaving it all behind to become a student of craft. She joins David to talk about what curiosity looks like when there's no magazine to fill. She explores textiles in India, broom-making in Japan, and basketry in Morocco, pursuing hands-on experience that exposes universal themes in human nature and drive.Traveling Through is proudly presented by Capital One.
