Brian Goldstone is a Pulitzer Prize–winning author and journalist whose work explores the human impact of housing insecurity, poverty, and economic inequality in America. Through immersive investigative reporting, he brings national attention to the growing number of working families experiencing homelessness. His latest book is There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America.

“The reach of homelessness is expanding. As it pulls more and more people into its grip, we might wonder: Who gets to feel secure in this country? And who are the casualties of our prosperity?”
― Brian Goldstone,
