Nikki Giovanni to Keynote Friends of the UNCG Libraries Annual Dinner on March 6, 2014

Nikki Giovanni Author, poet, essayist, and professor Nikki Giovanni will address the Friends of the UNCG Libraries Annual Dinner on March 6, 2014 in the Elliott University Center on the UNCG campus.  Giovanni will present "An Evening of Poetry, Love, and Enlightenment."  Some of her books will be for sale at the event, and there will be a book signing following her presentation.     Giovanni's visit will be made possible in large measure through the generosity of Woman's College alumna Kat Rorison ('46). Details will follow nearer to the event.  T ickets will go on sale in January at the beginning of the Spring semester.   Our thanks to all the Board members for their input and ideas, especially the Programming Committee and Chair Jim Schlosser. Friends Chairperson Billie Durham shared this link from Nikki Giovanni's excellent interview with Bill Moyers in 2009.  If you'd like to get a preview, see http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journa...
