Julie Burstein, creator of Studio 360, talks about some of the most influential and creative thinkers—from writers, to artists, to architects and filmmakers. In Spark: How Creativity Works, she pulls back the curtain to reveal the sources of these artists' inspiration and the processes they use to create.

Are "time-period" or "period of time" redundant since "period" is defined as a duration in time?
What a lifesaver!
I think creativity can be supported and encouraged - made space for - acknowledged, allowed.
Art school - that's a way to do all of the above - conservatory-style teaching - Art school in my experience was nothing but problem-solving! But I had already come from a place where creativity was assumed.
Oh yes thanks for the part about reading and writing with dyslexia - like Temple Grandin says we need Asberger's minds, we also need us dyslectics to steer this culture out of our culture's stuborn collective left brain!
I think this is the best show I have ever listened to. I keep thinking of people to give it to - my (somewhat philistine) friends with two year old twins, my friend who just lost her husband but has a granddaughter she wants to encourage as creative... thank you!!!
Thank you for your comment on dyslexia - I am also a dyslexic writer - it's easier and faster for me to write than for me to read
It is difficult to get the news from poems yet men die miserably every day for lack of what is found there - Asphodel, that Greeny Flower, WCW - love you Lenny.
