Join Mandy on Thursday, March 12, at University Club of Santa Barbara for a luncheon with author Mary Morris.
Mandy and Mary will be in conversation about Mary’s recent novel The Red House.
Born in Chicago, Mary Morris moved East for college but continues to write frequently about the Midwest, exploring the pull between home and away that shapes much of her work. An award-winning author of short stories, novels, and travel memoirs including Vanishing Animals, Nothing to Declare, and The Jazz Palace — she is widely praised for her storytelling and thematic focus on travel, memory, and family. Her historically based novel The Jazz Palace, published in 2015 after nearly twenty years of work, was acclaimed as a masterful tribute to her native city. Morris lives in Brooklyn, teaches at Sarah Lawrence College, and sees herself above all as a storyteller whose work unfolds through journeys.
Event tickets are $125 and include a copy of The Red House, a three-course prix fixe lunch, a conversation with Mary Morris and Mandy Jackson-Beverly, followed by a Q&A and book
