Emily Johnson, Co-Founder of Book Driver

Good afternoon, all. I had the opportunity to interview Logan Square resident Emily Johnson, who is the COO and co-founder along with her brother of Book Driver, an incredible and unique small business dedicated to keeping the appreciation of printed literature alive. She also works at Uncharted Books, a local used bookstore. When I first stopped in several weeks back, we got into a great conversation about community issues and I knew she'd be a perfect candidate for an interview. When I told her about Hope for Chicago, she was excited to participate. We ended up having another great follow-up conversation at Intelligentsia, one of the many delicious local coffee shops just a few doors down from Uncharted. She had a lot of insightful things to share on being an entrepreneur in the city, how to get involved in addressing community concerns, and even homeownership as a millennial/younger adult.
