Appreciating Barry Lopez

A TALK BY JON MCALICE

Before his death in 2020, the award-winning writer Barry Lopez spent a half-century traveling to 80 countries in his pursuit of an understanding of human identity and destiny. He generated many nonfiction and fiction works, including volumes of essays and short stories on the natural world that some critics likened to those of Thoreau and John Muir. This free evening event honors his life, lyricism, and insights.
