Author, Waving Goodbye: Life After Loss
This week, Ira spoke with Warren Kozak, author of Waving Goodbye: Life After Loss. In this coping episode of “Ira’s Everything Bagel,” Warren talks about the book he never expected to write after his wife’s death; books on grief he was given that didn’t help; why this book is personal and practical; how, when his wife died, “my brain just went out to lunch”; why he kept a diary; the good news, how it gets better as time goes by; why he wrote the book in short chapters and short sentences; “time after Lisa”; why death is intertwined with religion; how his Judaism helped him cope with the death of his wife; why he is grateful to his boss; his relationship with his daughter; and how music affected him.
Warren Kozak was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin in 1951, the third of four children. He was educated in the public schools there and attended the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where he graduated in 1973 with a degree in Political Science. When Warren was eight years old, he discovered television network news (probably while looking for cartoons) and was mesmerized by it. His first job after college was as a political researcher at ABC News in New York.
He would eventually become the writer for the major anchors at the network and worked as an on-air reporter at National Public Radio in Washington. Warren is the author of four highly acclaimed works of non-fiction and is a regular essayist on a wide variety of issues for national publications including The Wall Street Journal, The National Review and The New York Sun. He has lectured at the Air Force Academy, West Point, the National Air and Space Conference in Washington and the 92nd St. Y in New York.
Warren lived and worked in Beijing China in the mid-1980s and traveled extensively throughout Asia. In 1993, he won a Benton Fellowship at the University of Chicago. He now makes his home in New York.
