Infinitely Curious: “Your Story Starts Here”: An Interview with Greek-American Author Jim Zervanos

 

A conversation with Jim Zervanos – writer, painter, educator and Greek-American storyteller whose words travel from hospital rooms to high school classrooms, from the most personal moments of illness to the shared search for meaning.

Jim’s memoir, That Time I Got Cancer: A Love Story, isn’t just about facing mortality — it’s about discovering tenderness, trust, and what truly matters. His latest book, Your Story Starts Here, is a vivid portrait of Generation Z, drawn from his years teaching and listening to young voices navigating a complex world.

Together, they explore identity, heritage, and the way Greek roots quietly shape a life — and a voice. They talk about love, resilience, and the surprising ways our stories begin.

Produced and presented by: Katerina Batzaki
