SUMMARY:Reading and Book Signing with Rachel Zucker
DESCRIPTION:We welcome the Walker’s community\, as well as the general public\, to attend a reading and book signing with our Spring 2025 Visiting Writer Rachel Zucker on Thursday\, April 10 at 7:00 p.m. in Ferguson Theatre. This event is best suited for visitors aged 13 and older. \n\n\n\nRachel Zucker is the author of ten books\, including The Poetics of Wrongness (2023)\, SoundMachine (2019)\, The Pedestrians (2014)\, and Museum of Accidents (2009)\, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. She is the founder and host of the Commonplace podcast and Directrix of the Commonplace School for Embodied Poetics. A Yale and Iowa Writers’ Workshop graduate\, Zucker has taught creative writing for 29 years\, serving as an adjunct professor at NYU for the past 15. In 2016\, she was a Bagley Wright Lecturer\, delivering talks on poetry\, photography\, confessionalism\, motherhood\, and ethics in art. Her honors include a 2012 NEA Creative Writing Fellowship\, a 2016 Sustainable Arts Fellowship\, and residencies at MacDowell and Vermont Studio Center (2018). \n\n\n\nThe Ethel Walker School’s 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.
