Summary
Zibby speaks to actor Zosia Mamet (star of Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning HBO series Girls, and Emmy-nominated HBO Max series The Flight Attendant) about My First Popsicle: An Anthology of Food and Feelings, a beautiful collection of essays about the intrinsic ties between food, emotions, and memories. The two discuss the exhausting but rewarding process of compiling an anthology; Zibby’s favorite essay (which involves a break-up and meatballs!); Zosia’s experience with her eating disorder; and the intimacy and beauty of reading a book and visualizing the story in a way that no one else understands.
