CWG Presents Deborah Levine
Main Library 10th & Broad Tuesday, 6:00-8:00 p.m., May 14, 2019 THE LIBERATOR SERIES: ART OF THE HISTORICAL MEMOIR Deborah Levine explores the new genre of historical memoir through a discussion of her book, The Liberator’s Daughter, and its sequel, The Magic Marble Tree. She shares her father’s letters written during World War II when he was a US military intelligence officer assigned to interrogate Nazi prisoners of war. She also shares her mother’s wartime case studies pioneering Special Education and how both parents inspired her own life’s work. Deborah describes the challenges of weaving these documents into a memoir and making history engaging and personal with a ’Show - Not Tell’ writing style. DEBORAH LEVINE is an award-winning author of 13 books including, Going Southern, which was featured on CSPAN BOOK TV. Teaching Curious Christians about Judaism was taken to the Vatican as a gift for Pope Francis and won a National Catholic Press Association award. The Liberator’s Daughter was named a Finalist in the 2017 National Indie Book competition. Her articles are featured in The Chicago Tribune, Online Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post, and The Chattanooga Times Free Press where she is an opinion columnist. Deborah served as the Research Coordinator at UTC's College of Engineering & Computer Science and is published in several academic journals: Harvard Divinity School Bulletin, The Journal of Ecumenical Studies, and Journal of Public Management & Social Policy. Deborah founded the American Diversity Report e-zine (ADR) in 2006 and as Editor-in-Chief, she coordinates dozens of contributing writers from around the world.
