We have just scored 30 passes for an exclusive, private reception with The Atlantic's Scott Stossel in conversation with KUOW's Marcie Sillman. The reception will be followed by a talk on the Age of Anxiety.

More than 40 million adults in the United States suffer from anxiety, which makes it the most common mental illness in the U.S.  Scott Stossel is one of these adults. Successful author, The Atlantic editor and Harvard grad (AB '91), Stossel has struggled with crippling anxiety and the stigma associated with it his entire lfe. His book My Age of Anxiety: Fear, Hope, Dread, and the Search for Peace of Mind chronicles this struggle. Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud and modern neuroscientists have analyzed, picked and prodded those with anxiety and we're still left with unanswered questions about this misunderstood illness. By tracing the history of anxiety, Stossel sheds light on its development and by sharing his personal story, gives hope to many.
