11/8/2012 - Book signing and reception today 10-11:30am

Judson College has had the honor of hosting Mrs. Lila Quintero Weaver on campus November 7 and 8. 

Ms. Weaver, the author of  Darkroom:  A Memoir in Black and White, will be in Jewett Parlors Thursday 11/8 from 10:00-11:30 for a reception and book signing.  Books will be available for sale at that time  As one reviewer wrote:

Darkroom:  A Memoir in Black and White  is a remarkable for its truth-telling about two important issues concerning Alabama’s past and present: the civil rights movement and immigration. These stories, rendered through the words and eyes of a young Latina girl who came from Argentina to Marion, Alabama, are made vivid and immediate through Weaver’s highly accessible drawings and dialogue.:  Sena Jeter Naslund, Author of Ahab’s Wife.”

 

Stop by and say hello to this author or join the discussion in the classes that she will be visiting Thursday afternoon!

--Dr. Joann Williams
