About this Event
Co-presented with California College of the Arts
Continuing today’s Writers Weekend theme of creativity and compassion, this riveting conversation brings together four authors of equally engrossing nonfiction books. Their work utilizes effective reporting, skillful storytelling, and thoughtful reflection to illuminate some of the most complex issues of our time, from homelessness (Kevin Fagan) and migration (Jeanne Carstensen) to drug-fueled violence (Angela Garcia) and the opioid crisis (Shoshana Walter). Come learn how these skilled writers humanize issues too often kept at arms’ length, giving us clear, untarnished windows into the lives of affected individuals and eliciting readers’ empathy in the process. Moderated by Tom Barbash, this is a master class on compassionate narrative nonfiction. Pay what you can to guarantee a seat; FREE to walk ups space depending
