Th e LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration has observed over 70 gravitational-wave s ources to date\, including mergers between black holes\, neutron stars\, a nd mixed neutron star&mdash\;black holes. Focusing on the black hole merge rs\, I will describe some recent lessons into how\, when\, and where black holes are made. These questions are connected to several astrophysical pu zzles\, including the deaths of massive stars\, the growth of black holes across cosmic time\, high-redshift star formation\, and properties of glob ular clusters.
