Documentary filmmaker John Wilson is the writer, director, cameraman, producer, and narrator of the HBO docu-comedy series How To with John Wilson which just finished its third and final season last month. In his show, John showcases the everyday lives of fellow New Yorkers, managing to be both wildly absurd and achingly sweet in his portrayal of them, while also always treating them – and their obsessions – with dignity. In this episode, John gives Anna a peek inside how his brain works, and why building a life around his hobbies, like journaling and checking Craigslist ads obsessively, gives him a deeper understanding of himself and the world around him.
