The Rights and Humanities Annual Series is jointly sponsored by the John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute (FHI) and the Duke Human Rights Center @ FHI. The series was launched in 2019 to address the links between ideas of rights and the humanities - and to more fully explore the intellectual possibilities of housing a human rights center within a humanities institute. Nora Krug is a German-American author and artist. Her books have been published in 21 countries, and her illustrations have been recognized with gold and silver medals by both the Society of Illustrators and the NY Art Directors Club. Krug is a recipient of fellowships from Fulbright, the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, the Maurice Sendak Foundation, Yale University's Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies, and the American Academy Berlin.
Her books are included in the Library of Congress and the Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Columbia University. Krug was named Moira Gemmill Illustrator of the Year and 2019 Book Illustration Prize Winner by the Victoria and Albert Museum. Krug's recent publications include "Diaries of War: Two Visual Accounts from Ukraine and Russia" (Ten Speed Graphic, 2023), the graphic edition of Timothy Snyder's "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century" (Ten Speed Graphic, 2021), and "Belonging: A German Reckons With History and Home" (Scribner, 2018). http://www.nora-krug.com/
