Leading authors on life and writingAbout Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Seattle's own "action figure librarian," best-selling author, and literary critic Nancy Pearl sits down each month with authors, poets, and other literary figures for conversations about books, reading, and the process and art of writing. There's no one better qualified than Nancy, who brings an informed reader's perspective to lively conversation and in-depth dialogs about all things literary.
Nancy Pearl, author of the best-selling "Book Lust" series, creator of the internationally recognized program "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book" (which became "Seattle Reads"), and model for the world-famous Archee McPhee "Librarian Action Figure," is host of Book Lust with Nancy Pearl on the Seattle Channel.
Philanthropist, author, and self-proclaimed lover of stories Melinda Gates believes the key to societal health is investing in girls and women. She joined host Nancy Pearl at the opening of the 2019 American Library Association's Midwinter meeting on Jan. 25 in Seattle to discuss her new book, "The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World." The book serves as a gathering of women's movements around the globe, leaders Gates admires, and personal stories that demonstrate the effect of women's empowerment on community. She calls readers and listeners to action and lends advice on which strategies yield the greatest effects on societal health.
