Mona Chalabi on making sense of the unmeasurable

The multi award-winning illustrator joins our US editor-at-large Elizabeth Goodspeed on the New York Nicer Tuesdays stage to talk about everything from her first job at the UN to how she first got into creating infographics and the difficulty of working with data in journalism when the world can never truly be measured to a decimal place. Finally the author gives us an insight into the story behind her first Penguin-published book: Ten Lives: How What We Have Shapes Who We Are, a unique blend of memoir, reportage and data visualisation and a reimagining of how we talk about class and the top 1 per cent, which took her six years to write and design.
