An Evening with Susan Orlean

Get a look into Susan Orlean’s process as she guides the audience through the writing of one of her pieces. After, she’ll participate in a Q&A with Hugo House instructor and memoirist Claire Dederer, author of Poser. The bar will be open serving drinks, and books will be for sale by Elliott Bay Book Company. Susan will be available for signing after the event. 

Tickets at the door will be $10 for students, $13 for members, and $15 general, so we encourage buying tix in advance!

A staff writer for the New Yorker for more than twenty years, her deeply moving—and deeply humorous—explorations of American stories, both familiar and obscure, have earned her a reputation as one of America’s most distinctive journalistic voices. She is the author of five books of non-fiction including The Orchid Thief and Rin Tin Tin.
