Seth Wickersham is living his dream.
He wanted to be a long-form sports feature writer, and he has achieved that goal at the highest level. He has been with The Worldwide Leader in Sports for 26 years, since he began his career at ESPN The Magazine. Although the magazine went defunct in 2019, Wickersham has remained one of the most respected journalists in sports.
The ESPN senior writer and New York Times bestseller has a new book: Be on That Hill: Stories from the Summits of Sport. It's a collection of his work, featuring 26 essays that will be released on Sept. 15 and is available for preorder now. We recently caught up with Wickersham to discuss his book and career.
