About This Webinar

WealthVest is proud to announce the first installment in our Leaders Series, featuring world renowned science, nature, and travel writer David Quammen. David is the author of several books, including his 2012 book, Spillover, which foreshadowed the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the past two years, David has been interviewing top virologists across the world, reporting on Covid-19 for The New Yorker and The New York Times, and writing a book on the pandemic for Simon & Schuster from his home in Bozeman, Montana.
David will sit down for an informative conversation with WealthVest’s president, Wade Dokken, where they will discuss David’s findings on COVID-19, including:
• How predictable this pandemic was
• What makes this different from other viruses?
• Where did COVID-19 originate?
• Will we eradicate the coronavirus, or is it more likely to become endemic?
• What lessons can be learned from our handling of the virus?

Author, Journalist
David Quammen is an author and journalist whose books include The Song of the Dodo (1996), The Reluctant Mr. Darwin (2006), and Spillover (2014), a work on the science, history, and human impacts of emerging diseases (especially viral diseases), which was short-listed for eight national and international awards and won three. His shorter books Ebola (2014) and The Chimp and the River(2015) were drawn from Spillover, each with a new introduction. His forthcoming book (August 2018) is The Tangled Tree: A Radical New History of Life, which explores the drastic revisions in understanding of life’s history on Earth forced by recent discoveries from genome sequencing, and the story of a scientist named Carl Woese. In the past thirty years Quammen has also published a few hundred pieces of short nonfiction—feature articles, essays, columns—in magazines such as Harper’s, National Geographic, Outside, Esquire, The Atlantic, Powder, and Rolling Stone. He writes occasional Op Eds for The New York Times and reviews for The New York Times Book Review. Quammen has been honored with an Academy Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and is a three-time recipient of the National Magazine Award. He is a Contributing Writer for National Geographic, in whose service he travels often, usually to wild and remote places. Home is Bozeman, Montana.
