In his latest book, From Every End of this Earth: 13 Families and the New Lives They Made in America, Steven Roberts explores the contemporary immigrant experience and shares the accounts and voices of thirteen families who are following in the footsteps of his ancestors. Roberts, a New York Times bestselling author, award-winning journalist and well-respected commentator, has always been fascinated by his grandparents’ migration to America from the Old World nearly one hundred years ago, and he traced their story in his stirring memoir My Fathers’ Houses. He has been a journalist for more than forty years, working at the New York Times and U.S. News & World Report. He and his wife, television journalist and author Cokie Roberts, coauthored the New York Times bestseller From This Day Forward.
