In 2021, burnt out from the intensity of her early career, Maggie Rogers considered quitting music entirely. Instead, she took a detour — to Harvard Divinity School, where she earned a master’s degree in religion and public life. Rogers spoke with Fresh Air‘s Sam Briger about her songwriting process, becoming a star overnight, and being a nostalgic person. Her new album is Don’t Forget Me.
This episode is a special extended version of the interview that aired on NPR.
