Tomorrow night at 7pm in the Wool Ballrooms, Sonia Nazario will be speaking. Sonia is the author of Enrique’s Journey, the first-year summer reading selection for the 2012-2013 academic year.

Sonia Nazario has spent 20 years reporting and writing about social issues, most recently as a projects reporter for the Los Angeles Times. Her stories have tackled some of this country’s most intractable problems: hunger, drug addiction, immigration.

She has won numerous national journalism and book awards. In 2003, her story of a Honduran boy’s struggle to find his mother in the S, entitled “Enrique’s Journey,” won more than a dozen awards, among them the Pulitzer Prize for feature writing, the George Polk Award for International Reporting, the Grand Prize of the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award, and the National Assn. of Hispanic Journalists Guillermo Martinez-Marquez Award for Overall Excellence.
Expanded into a book, Enrique’s Journey became a national bestseller and won two book awards. It is now required reading for incoming freshmen at dozens of colleges and high schools across the US.
The program will begin at 7pm and a book signing will follow at 8:15pm.  Hope to see you then! Sponsored by the Student Involvement Center.
