Event Description

From the Classics to Miles Morales, award-winning Young Adult author Julian Winters (Running with Lions, Right Where I Left You) takes us on a journey through the books assigned to him as a young reader, the places he discovered his voice and motivation to write, and how the power of representation inspired him to become the hero he longed to see between the pages as a teen.
