From a school for "troubled kids," to wrestling with his identity in the burgeoning punk scene of the 1980s; from a stint as an ice cream scooper as he got clean in Florida, to an unpaid internship in New York in his thirties, Zara spent years contending with skeptical hiring managers and his own impostor syndrome before breaking into the world of journalism--only to be met by an industry preoccupied with pedigree. As he navigated the world of the elite and saw the realities of the education gap firsthand, Zara realized he needed to confront the label he had been quietly holding in: what it looked like to be part of the "working class"--whatever that meant."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Zara, Christopher. 650 0 $a Journalists $z United States $v Biography. 650 7 $a FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS / Education. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HUM025000. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HUMOR / Topic / School & Education. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 8 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516015834.0 952 $l CCPB522 $d 20240116010252.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20231021032053.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20230923010918.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230902012402.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230802012002.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230706010608.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230607010109.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=984E31D204F811EE9324458D38ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
