Mark
Mark asked B.A. Shapiro:

I am enjoying the Muralist, and given the current brouhaha over refugees your book is amazingly timely. I was disturbed when you had FDR tell Eleanor that allowing Jews into the country was an indulgence of a Protestant nation (read Washington's letter to Touro synagogue for a counterargument). Do you have a source that attributes this opinion to FDR?

Goodreads asked B.A. Shapiro:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Shannon Wise
Shannon Wise asked B.A. Shapiro:

A lot of books lately, have used jumping of time and character in alternating chapters and I have found it annoying and hard to follow the plot. How did you manage to do it so seamlessly in The Muralist? Did you write each story separately and put them together?
