We talk about prodigies. Kurt Andersen and the pianist Gary Graffman explore the fascination we have with children who create beyond their years. We’ll trace the life of the girl once known as the black Shirley Temple. Sarah Chang speaks about discovering the violin. And a young dancer copes with her early rise to stardom at the New York City Ballet.
Every day, reporters and producers at The World are hard at work bringing you human-centered news from across the globe. But we can’t do it without you. We need your support to ensure we can continue this work for another year.
