Bailey-King Author Series: Cocktails & Conversation with Derek Green
-
Southworth Library

On behalf of Headmaster Ted Koskores '70 P '10, '13, you are invited to join us for an event with author, screenwriter, and Yale lecturer Derek Green, who will discuss how stories survive and thrive in the age of Netflix and YouTube, and will read from his upcoming novel, Blood and Liberty. Derek is Thayer's first author in the Bailey-King Author Series. Established in 2016 through the generous support of Todd Slawsby '88, the Bailey-King Author Series endeavors to celebrate the written word through annual author events at Thayer. Named in honor of long-time English faculty members Betty Bailey '63 and Jim King P '01, '04, '06, the Bailey-King Author Series will host highly regarded authors on campus to educate budding student writers about careers in writing and inspire them to seek new depth in their own voices.
