INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
In Look for Me There, Luke Russert traverses terrain both physical and deeply personal. On his journey to some of the worldâs most stunning destinations, he visits the internal places of grief, family, faith, ambition, and purposeâwith intense self-reflection, honesty, and courage."âSavannah Guthrie, coanchor of Today
âLook for me there,â news legend Tim Russert would tell his son, Luke, when confirming a pickup spot at an airport, sporting event, or rock concert. After Tim died unexpectedly, Luke kept looking for his father, following in Timâs footsteps and carving out a highly successful career at NBC News. After eight years covering politics on television, Luke realized he had no good answer as to why he was chasing his fatherâs legacy. As the son of two accomplished parentsâhis mother is journalist Maureen Orth of Vanity FairâLuke felt the pressure of high expectations but suddenly decided to leave the familiar path behind.
Instead, Luke set out on his own to find answers. What began as several open-ended months of travel to decompress and reassess morphed into a three-plus-year odyssey across six continents to discover the world and, ultimately, to find himself.
Chronicling the important lessons and historical understandings Luke discovered from his travels, Look for Me There is both the vivid narrative of that journey and the emotional story of a young man taking charge of his life, reexamining his relationship with his parents, and finally grieving his larger-than-life father, who died too young.Â
For anyone uncertain about the direction of their life or unsure of how to move forward after a loss, Look for Me There is a poignant reflection that offers encouragement to examine our choices, take risks, and discover our truest selves.
