A Life Changed: "Who Knows Tomorrow"

Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

Random House

Lisa Lovatt-Smith had it all by her mid-thirties: great jobs, famous friends, a house in Paris. 

Then she visited an orphanage in Africa, and her life turned upside-down.  And she let it. 

Today Lovatt-Smith lives in a mud hut in Ghana, running the organization OAfrica, which assists orphans. 

Her memoir is "Who Knows Tomorrow," and she is our guest.  

Mentioned on-air: J.K. Rowling's piece from The Guardian about orphanages and her organization.
