Thank you @StoryCorps for the most fun today! So glad I saw the @60Minutes episode that @NorahODonnell did on the “One Small Step Initiative”. I had the pleasure of a session today and gained a new friend! The most amazing experience! ❤️

I can’t help but think of my mom and dad right now and what their @StoryCorps conversation would have been. This next chapter for me is personal. Excited and honored.

Meet Liyna Anwar, our former producer. After being diagnosed with leukemia, she needs help finding a bone marrow transplant — potential donors of South Asian descent in particular.
