Leanne Shapton

Heidi Julavits, Leanne Shapton, and Sheila Heti discuss their new book, a collaboration with hundreds of women on how the private act of putting on clothes affects their public life.

Leanne Shapton, who trained for the Olympic swimming trials when she was a teenager, talks about what draws her to swimming—in pools and on beaches across the world. Swimming Studies explores what it's like to move from a world of competition and discipline to one of recreation and introspection.
