SUMMARY:Reading and Book Signing with Mahogany L. Browne
DESCRIPTION:Mahogany L. Browne\, our fall Visiting Writer\, will be on campus on November 7-11. We welcome the Walker’s community\, as well as the general public\, to attend a reading with Ms. Browne on Friday\, November 11 at 7:00 p.m. in Ferguson Theatre. Refreshments and book signing to follow. \n\n\n\nMahogany L. Browne\, selected as Kennedy Center’s Next 50 and Wesleyan’s 2022-23 Distinguished Writer-in-Residence\, is the Executive Director of JustMedia\, Artistic Director of Urban Word\, a writer\, playwright\, organizer\, and educator. Browne has received fellowships from Arts for Justice\, Air Serenbe\, Cave Canem\, Poets House\, Mellon Research\, and Rauschenberg. She is the author of recent works: Vinyl Moon\, Chlorine Sky\, Woke: A Young Poets Call to Justice\, Woke Baby\, and Black Girl Magic. Founder of the diverse lit initiative Woke Baby Book Fair\, Browne’s latest poetry collection Chrome Valley is a promissory note to survival and available from Norton Spring 2023. As she readies for her stage debut of Chlorine Sky at Steppenwolf Theater in Chicago\, Illinois\, she drinks coffee while living in Brooklyn\, NY. She is the first ever poet-in-residence at Lincoln Center. \n\n\n\nThe Ethel Walker School Visiting Writer Seminar is a semester-long course in which students have the rare and special opportunity to immerse themselves in a study of one writer’s works\, something few students of English at the undergraduate and graduate levels experience. Throughout the semester\, students read a critical mass of texts by that writer\, developing a deep and abiding knowledge of that writer’s style\, form(s)\, and ideas. The course culminates with a visit by the author to Walker’s. Through master classes\, writing workshops\, and readings to the community\, students are invited to ask the questions that only the author can answer. At the end of each semester\, students in the Visiting Writer Seminar collaborate on a final project in which they conceptualize\, layout\, design\, and publish a class anthology of works\, inspired by the writings of the visiting writer.
