What Makes a Person Creative?

Is it a skill we are born with? Can it be developed?

One writer hopes to answer those questions and he is coming to OHSU next week to share his thoughts.

His name is Jonah Lehrer and if you Google him you will get a ton of fascinating information including this New York Times article that was published earlier this week.

Lehrer has also appeared on The Colbert Report - a segment that’s well worth a few minutes of watching.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you want to hear more from Jonah, the public lecture will take place on Tuesday April 10th. Info about tickets here.
