We at IDE already knew that, but it’s nice to see that our Founder, Paul Polak, has been recognized in a special feature in the Atlantic this month. In its first annual “Brave Thinkers” issue, the magazine lists 27 men and women “who have risked their careers, reputations, fortunes, and, in some cases, even lives to advance ideas that upend an established order.” Paul joins a diverse group of honorees, including President Obama, Freeman Dyson, Steve Jobs, Morgan Tsvangirai, and South Park’s Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
Paul will be appearing at The Tattered Cover bookstore in Denver to celebrate the paperback release of his book Out of Poverty on October 27 at 7:30 p.m.
