Welcome to Count Me In with Della and Deanna. Today we feature an exciting conversation with Susan D”Agostino, a writer and mathematician who recently authored How to Free Your Inner Mathematician:Notes on Mathematics and Life and who currently serves as the technology reporter for Inside Higher Ed.. Susan earned her undergraduate degree in anthropology from Bard College, a masters in science writing from Johns Hopkins University, and a PhD in mathematics from Dartmouth College. In this conversation, you will hear about the preschool experience that taught her to stand up for herself, her unusual path to mathematics, her book that has only curiosity as a prerequisite, her secret for taking on the next challenge, and why every mathematical proof is a story. So, please join us as we talk with Susan.

Join Della Dumbaugh and Deanna Haunsperger this fall for Season 2 of Count Me In with Della and Deanna. Listen to interesting conversations with mathematicians about their personal stories of growing up. These conversations will give you insights into the many paths people take to find their way to a career in mathematics and the many people who help them along the way. You can listen to colleagues talk about moments when they felt like they were part of a community—and moments they struggled to feel like they belong. You will laugh out loud when you hear the funny items colleagues keep on their desks and jump to your feet when you hear their go-to energizing songs. Please join us for six Mondays, beginning October 24.
