MILK Podcast: Lost and Found, Season 3 Episode 9: You May Want to Marry Amy Krouse Rosenthal's Husband, Jason B. Rosenthal

Jason B. Rosenthal is the author of “My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me: A Memoir.” In March of 2017, beloved author Amy Krouse Rosenthal published an essay about her love for her husband Jason in the New York Times Modern Love column. Amy had been fighting late stage, aggressive ovarian cancer and ultimately died two weeks later, after the piece had gone viral and touched millions of readers. Jason’s memoir is his response to Amy’s death, and to their lives together as partners, parents, and explorers.
