About this event

Our Lunch with Alumni Authors is a new series designed to bring together our alumni, parent and student communities to celebrate graduates of our treasured English department, and discuss one of our favorite topics...books!

Co-hosted by Charlotte King-Mills, our new Digital Literacy Specialist and Librarian, and Rebecca Hutchinson Houser '92, Director of Alumni Relations, the series will be held over Zoom from 12:30 to 1 pm PT (with an optional 15 min Q&A following ).

We suggest that attendees purchase and read the books in advance through Book Passage or City Lights Bookstore. Additional copies will be available for students in the Branson library.

This year we will read and discuss the following titles with more added throughout the year.
