He is also the cofounder of Pushkin Industries, an audio-content company that produces Revisionist History, among other podcasts and audiobooks. He was born in England, raised in Canada, and lives outside New York with his family and a cat named Biggie Smalls. (* Gladwell appeared on the Live Talks Los Angeles stage for these titles and also has interviewed Michael Lewis, Ziggy Marley and David Goldhill for us)The United States has far more homicides than any of its peers around the world. Why?In this groundbreaking book, Malcolm Gladwell explores the American “peculiarity”―how the world’s wealthiest country came to suffer from a problem typically only seen in the world’s poorest countries.Drawing on original interviews, archival and social science research, and his trademark insight, Gladwell approaches the American paradox through a series of stories. What can we learn from the miracle of a young gunshot victim in Washington, D.C.? How have the legal troubles of a seventeenth-century English knight influenced American attempts at gun control? Why would a European police chief be baffled by the graduation ceremony at any American police academy?In a sweeping narrative, Gladwell travels from a shooting range in North Carolina, to the South Side of Chicago, to an old plantation house in Alabama, painting a picture of a country that does not understand its most pressing social problem, and as result, does not understand how to fix it. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/5a4d2870-a360-11f1-9988-bfc638c33a5a-rimg-w491-h740-dcf8a818-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/culver-city/an-evening-with-malcolm-gladwell/100001994769698867 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, virtual, sports, theatre, literary-art, science-fair, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 3 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes - Location: Robert Frost Auditorium - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 61.56, max: 94.6, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Culver City - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Robert Frost Auditorium - **lat**: 34.0075679 - **long**: -118.40240819999997 - **full address**: Robert Frost Auditorium, 4401 Elenda Street, Culver City, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: An Evening with Malcolm Gladwell - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/37f11033af260b87b8dbae4274bbd199e95a7c614ccdba480414e97acfec0dc5-rimg-w1200-h600-dcd4d7d1-gmir.jpg?v=1784916999 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is An Evening with Malcolm Gladwell being held? - **A:** An Evening with Malcolm Gladwell takes place on Thu, 01 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm to Thu, 01 Oct, 2026 at 09:15 pm at Robert Frost Auditorium, 4401 Elenda Street, Culver City, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing An Evening with Malcolm Gladwell? - **A:** An Evening with Malcolm Gladwell is organized by Live Talks Los Angeles. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
