I’m Steve Inskeep, one of the hosts of NPR’s “Morning Edition” and “Up First.” We recently ran “A Foot In Two Worlds,” a series looking at the lives affected by the tensions between the U.S. and China. Ask me anything about our reporting.

Tariffs, trade and Huawei have been dominating the news coverage as the relationship between Washington, D.C., and Beijing appears to be deteriorating. We went beyond the headlines to talk to people with ties to both the U.S. and China. The stories in this team effort include Chinese students in the U.S. who face suspicion in both countries, as well as a Maryland lawmaker who left Shanghai in 1989. You can catch up on these voices here.

I joined NPR in 1996 and have been with “Morning Edition” since 2004. I’ve interviewed presidents and congressional leaders, and my reporting has taken me to places like Baghdad, Beijing, Cairo, New Orleans, San Francisco and the U.S.-Mexico border.

I’ll start answering questions at noon Eastern. You can follow me on Twitter: @NPRinskeep.

Here I am, ready to get started: https://twitter.com/NPR/status/1141349058021396480
