Best-selling novelist Dawn Tripp will speak at the Lanier Library Annual Meeting, Sunday, June 12, 2 p.m., at the Tryon Fine Arts Center, Tryon, N.C.
The author will share her experience of being swept into the genius and passion that was Georgia O’Keeffe and bringing the iconic “Mother of American Modernism” to intimate life in the novel “Georgia.”
Booklist describes the book as a “powerful interpretation of O’Keeffe’s personal growth through her relationship with photographer Alfred Stieglitz.”
SouthCoast Today writes, “vivid…a palette of…temper, ego, jealousy, desire…” The New York Times calls it, “Complex and original.” A “tour de force” heralds the Publisher’s Weekly Starred Review. USA Today thinks, ”Magical and provocative.”
A reception will follow the presentation, next door, until 5:30 p.m. at Lanier Library, 72 Chestnut St.
This event is free and open to the public and is made possible with generous support from the Kirby Endowment Fund at the Polk County Community Foundation. For more details call 828-859-9535 or visit lanierlib.org.
