Graham Studio™ Conversations

For the Graham Studio™ Conversations season one finale, we are joined by Anne Williams-Isom—a dedicated leader with decades of experience in New York City’s child welfare and social services landscape.

Anne brings a deeply personal perspective to her conversation with fellow human services innovator, Graham’s President and CEO, Kym Watson. From discovering her “superpower” passed down through generations to what it truly means to “lead with love” in supporting children and families, Anne shares insights that will stay with you long after the conversation ends.
