He wrote the book and lyrics for the musical comedy Our Table, with composer David Shire; the libretto for the oratorio Sentences, with Nico Muhly; and is currently collaborating on a new musical, Fairy Tale, with Andrew Lippa.
Gopnik has won three National Magazine Awards, for essays and for criticism, and the George Polk Award for Magazine Reporting. In 2021, he was made a Chevalier of the Legion d鈥檋onneur, and this year was elected to the American Academy of Arts & Letters. He lectures widely and, in 2011, delivered the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation鈥檚 50th anniversary Massey Lecture.
