SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Angkorian Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Informed by her experience as a refugee\, Phung Huynh’s projects explore the complexities of displacement\, assimilation\, and cultural negotiation among Cambodian and Vietnamese refugees who have resettled in the United States. She creates detailed graphite portraits on pink donut boxes to highlight the stories of Southeast Asians who have survived war trauma and genocide. Huynh’s serigraph prints about Donut Kids foreground intergenerational gaps as well as bridging the refugee parent and American child through the narratives of Cambodian American children who were raised by donut shop owners in California. Huynh’s most recent work of drawings of Cambodian Buddhist statue heads and photographic prints of decapitated statue bodies on fabric addresses the repatriation of looted Cambodian antiquities in the context of challenging the legacy of colonialism\, unethical museum practices\, and the refugee’s desire to return home.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:An 'Austrian' Model of Global Value Chains
DESCRIPTION:I develop a stylized model of multi-stage production in which the time length of each stage is endogenously determined. Letting the production process mature for a longer period of time increases labor productivity\, but it comes at the cost of higher working capital needs for firms. Under autarky\, countries with lower interest rates feature longer production processes\, higher labor productivity\, and higher wages. In a free trade equilibrium\, countries with lower interest rates specialize in relatively ‘time intensive’ stages in global value chains (GVCs). Yet\, if free trade brings about interest rate equalization\, wages are also equalized and the pattern of trade is instead shaped by capital intensity and capital abundance\, regardless of the time intensity of the various stages. Reductions in trade costs lead to patterns of specialization associated with higher amounts of vertical specialization in world trade. A worldwide decline in interest rates similarly fosters an increase in the share of GVC trade in world trade. The framework also sheds light on the role of trade credit and trade finance in shaping international specialization.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SRC Seminar Series Presents: How Much Does Poverty Early in Life Harm Children’s Development?
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 24\, 2025 at 12:00-1:30pm ET\n12:00-1:00 Seminar\n1:00-1:30 Questions and Collaboration\n\nRoom 6050\, ISR Thompson\n\nRSVP to attend\n\nAbstract\nDevelopmental differences between children growing up in poverty and their higher-income peers are frequently reported. However\, the extent to which such differences are caused by differences in family income is unclear. To study the causal role of income on children’s development\, the Baby’s First Years randomized control trial provided families with monthly unconditional cash transfers. One thousand racially and ethnically diverse mothers with incomes below the U.S. federal poverty line were recruited from postpartum wards in 2018-19\, and randomized to receive either $333/month or $20/month for the first several years of their children’s lives. After the first four years of the intervention (n=891)\, and stellar field work by SRC\, we find xxx impacts of the cash transfers on four preregistered primary outcomes (language\, executive function\, social-emotional problems\, and high-frequency brain activity) and yyy impacts on three secondary outcomes (visual processing/spatial perception\, pre-literacy\, maternal reports of developmental diagnoses). At the seminar we will fill in the blanks!\n\nBiography\nGreg Duncan is Distinguished Professor in the School of Education at the University of California\, Irvine. He spent the first 25 years of his career at the University of Michigan working on and ultimately directing the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) data collection project. Duncan’s recent work has focused on estimating the role of school-entry skills and behaviors on later school achievement and attainment and the effects of increasing income inequality on schools and children’s life chances. He is part of a team conducting the Baby’s First Years project – a random-assignment trial assessing impacts of income supplements on the cognitive and socioemotional development of infants born to poor mothers in four diverse U.S. communities. Duncan was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2010 and has recently chaired two NAS consensus panels on child poverty.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Multilingual Digital Humanities and Data Work
DESCRIPTION:s recent technologies such as large language models\, natural language processing\, machine vision\, and GenAI continue to shape research\, education\, and cultural production\, humanistic research is changing rapidly. Our goal with this event is to address these critical and timely issues with leading thinkers in their respective fields.\n\nWe hope that this will be the first of many events to dive deeper into collaborative computational humanities methods with our research community.\n\nPanels:\nMultilingual Digital Humanities:\n\nAndrew Janco and Quinn Dombrowski have both\, individually and together\, made significant contributions to the expanding field of multilingual digital humanities. They were part of the educational initiative “New Languages for NLP: Building Linguistic Diversity in the Digital Humanities\,” funded by a National Endowment for Humanities Institute for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities grant. This grant enabled scholars to create high-quality linguistic data and train models for under-resourced\, domain-specific\, and on eleven historical languages: Ottoman Turkish\, Tigrinya\, Kanbun\, Efik\, 19th c. Russian\, Classical Arabic\, Old Chinese\, Yoruba\, Quechua\, Yiddish and Kanada. In this panel\, they will talk about what they’ve accomplished\, the challenges they’ve faced\, and future directions for multilingual digital humanities.\n\nHumanities and Data Work:\n\nMeredith Martin and Zoe LeBlanc will delve into their forthcoming book\, Data Work in the Humanities (Princeton University Press). This work is a result of their long-running collaboration and features over 25 interviews with other humanists who work with data. This panel will explore how our technologically mediated environment has reshaped traditional academic models\, emphasizing the need to move beyond the notion of the autonomous scholar. Instead\, they argue for recognizing the interconnectedness of critical sources and the necessity of collaboration\, interdisciplinarity\, and collectivity within the humanities research ecosystem. They will address the challenges of establishing common data workflows in a field where research practices and assumptions about scholarship and data are not widely discussed.\n\nPanelists’ bios:\n\nAndrew Janco is the digital scholarship specialist at Princeton University.   He has experience using natural language processing and computer vision to analyze large historical document collections and has a passion for inquiry-driven and community-engaged digital projects. Andy is the co-director of “New Languages for NLP: Building Linguistic Diversity in the Digital Humanities\,” an NEH-funded Institute for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities. He is also the lead developer working on a digital archive and research application with the Groupo de Apoyo Mutuo\, Guatemala’s oldest human rights organization. Andy received his PhD in Russian history from the University of Chicago and a master’s in library and information science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\n\nQuinn Dombrowski (non-binary\, any pronouns are fine) is the Academic Technology Specialist in the Division of Literatures\, Cultures\, and Languages\, and in the Library\, at Stanford University. Prior to coming to Stanford in 2018\, Quinn’s many DH adventures included supporting the high-performance computing cluster at UC Berkeley\, running the DiRT tool directory with support from the Mellon Foundation\, writing books on Drupal for Humanists and University of Chicago library graffiti\, and working on the program staff of Project Bamboo\, a failed digital humanities cyberinfrastructure initiative. Since coming to Stanford\, Quinn has supported numerous non-English DH projects\, taught courses on non-English DH\, developed a tabletop roleplaying game to teach DH project management\, explored trends in multilingual Harry Potter fanfic\, and started the Data-Sitters Club\, a feminist DH pedagogy and research group focused on Ann M. Martin’s 90’s girls series “The Baby-Sitters Club.” Quinn is currently co-VP of the Association for Computers and the Humanities along with Roopika Risam\, and advocates for better support for DH in languages other than English. Quinn has a BA/MA in Slavic Linguistics from the University of Chicago\, and an MLIS from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\n\nMeredith Martin is the founder and faculty director of the Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton University\, where she has also been a professor in the English department since 2006. Her book The Rise and Fall of Meter: Poetry and English National Culture 1860-1930 won the MLA First Book Prize and the Brooks-Warren Prize for Literary Criticism and was co-winner of the Sonya Rudikoff Prize. Her second book\, Poetry’s Data: Digital Humanities and the Future of Historical Prosody\, was just published by Princeton University Press\, as is Data Work in the Humanities\, with Professor Zoe LeBlanc. With Mary Naydan\, she oversees the Princeton Prosody Archive\, a full-text searchable database of a variety of textual materials about the study of poetry and pronunciation in English from the 16th-century to the current copyright year. Martin received her BA from Smith College and her MA and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan.\n\nZoe LeBlanc joined the School of Information Sciences at the University of Illinois as an assistant professor in August 2021. Before coming to Illinois\, she served as a postdoctoral associate and Weld Fellow at the Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton University. LeBlanc previously worked as a digital humanities developer at the Scholars’ Lab at the University of Virginia (UVA)\, where she was responsible for building web applications for mapping and data visualization in the humanities. At UVA and Princeton\, she has taught a wide range of topics\, including the history of digital humanities and the foundations of humanities data analysis. LeBlanc currently serves on the editorial board of the Programming Historian and the executive committee of the Association for Computers and the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A Pairwise Differencing Distribution Regression Approach for Network Models
DESCRIPTION:A novel estimation method for distribution regressions in a network setting is proposed. It considers the effects of covariates on the entire outcome distribution rather than solely on the mean. I adopt a semiparametric approach by considering two-way unit-specific effects. Thus\, I extend the standard distribution regression approach to a network setting by estimating multiple binary choice models with two-way fixed effects for different thresholds of the distribution. I employ a conditional maximum-likelihood approach that differences out the unit-specific effects\, avoiding the incidental parameter problem. This method yields consistent point estimates that converge at a parametric rate and remain asymptotically unbiased in the tails of the outcome distribution\, where the underlying network can be seen as sparse. Monte Carlo simulations validate these findings for single cut-off points and the overall outcome distribution. The empirical application focuses on gravity equations for bilateral trade\, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach in cases where the outcome variable is bounded below at zero.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Designing energy-harvesting materials via the vapor phase: From water splitting silicon nanowires to solar absorbing hybrid perovskites
DESCRIPTION:The vapor-phase provides a unique capacity to encode precise composition and morphology in semiconductor materials and interfaces for energy-harvesting functionality. Here\, we highlight recent work on the vapor-phase synthetic control of Si nanowires\, photoelectrochemical interfaces\, and hybrid perovskite materials. Together\, these processes provide platforms to design chemically encoded\, nanostructured systems for applications ranging from solar water splitting to photovoltaic solar cells. First\, we show how abrupt transitions between p-type\, intrinsic\, and n-type silicon allow nanowire p-i-n superlattices to be synthesized that behave as multijunction photovoltaic devices with extraordinarily large photovoltages. Using spatio-selective photoelectrochemical deposition of hydrogen and oxygen-evolving co-catalysts\, water splitting particle suspensions are demonstrated. Second\, we show how planar silicon interfaces can be functionalized with nanoscale oxide and graphene layers\, facilitating the integration of molecular catalysts for solar-driven CO2 reduction. Finally\, we demonstrate the first metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth of methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3). Use of separate vapor precursors for the lead\, organic\, and halide components allows the tuning of reaction conditions to grow the material directly with high purity. Overall\, the projects highlight the precise and tunable control of material composition\, morphology\, and functionality provided by the vapor phase.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Generative AI and Sexual Harms
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nGenerative AI has made it easy to create and distribute nude\, sexual content without a person’s consent. With just an image of a face\, a person can be depicted in intimate contexts without their permission\, or even awareness. Victims of non-consensual intimate content (NCIM) experience extreme loss of privacy\, dignity\, and safety. Victims can range from celebrities to politicians to everyday citizens to children. NCIM online is not a new problem – people’s bodies and likeness have been captured\, altered\, and distributed online without their permission since the early days of the Internet. However\, the scale and scope enabled by generative AI has dramatically changed the landscape of sexual harms. We will examine the legal and ethical concerns posed by non-consensual intimate content and explore the regulatory and technological measures needed to address it. We will also provide practical recommendations for requesting takedown of non-consensual content after it happens.\n\nBiography\nSarita Schoenebeck is a Professor in the School of Information at the University of Michigan. Her research examines social and technical approaches to creating safer and more equitable experiences online. Her research has been covered in The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, NPR\, and elsewhere. She has taught at Michigan and Yale Law Schools and is a Member of the Yale Justice Collaboratory. Sarita received her PhD in Human-Centered Computing from Georgia Tech.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Kelsey Book Club | *Hera* by Jennifer Saint
DESCRIPTION:Attend the April session of our monthly Kelsey Book Club! This event is open to all adults who have an interest in fiction\, mythology\, and the ancient world. Learn more about this program at https://myumi.ch/Drn1Q. \n\nThis month\, we are reading Jennifer Saint’s *Hera* (2024): “Traditionally portrayed as a jealous wife\, a wicked stepmother\, and a victim-blaming instrument of the patriarchy\, Hera is ripe for a retelling that shows her as a powerful queen―ruthless when she needs to be\, but also compassionate\, strategic\, and ambitious. With Hera\, beloved and bestselling author Jennifer Saint delivers another epic and enthralling reimagining of a Greek heroine we only thought we knew.”\n\nJoin us in Room 124 of Newberry Hall for an evening of community and conversation led by Amanda Kubic\, PhD candidate in the University of Michigan’s Department of Comparative Literature. Light refreshments will be served. \n\nIf you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event\, please visit our accessibility page at https://myumi.ch/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.\n\n*Note: Registration for this session is now closed. *

SUMMARY:Performance:Ellis Paul
DESCRIPTION:\"Finds light in telling stories through music\" —Albuquerque Journal\n\nEllis Paul doesn’t just write songs\; he’s a guitar-carrying reporter who covers the human condition and details the hopes\, loves\, losses of those he observes\, turning their stories into luminous pieces of music that get under your skin and into your bloodstream. \n\nBorn and raised in Maine\, Paul attended Boston College on a track scholarship and in the evenings became a fixture on the city’s open mic circuit. After winning a Boston Acoustic Underground songwriter competition\, he caught the ear of folk luminary Bill Morrissey\, who produced his indie album Say Something in 1993. This led to a seven album contract with Rounder Records. His songs have appeared in several blockbuster films (Me\, Myself\, and Irene\; Shallow Hal\, Hall Pass) and have been covered by award winning country artists (Sugarland\, Kristian Bush\, Jack Ingram). Through a steady succession of albums of his own – a remarkable 23 releases so far – and a constant touring presence around the world\, Paul’s audience has grown into a loyal legion of fans.\n.
