Book Lauch Celebration with Bridgett Davis : Celebrating 25 Years of the Harman-Writer-in-Residence Program
The Harman Program warmly invites you to celebrate the launch of the poignant new memoir by former Harman Director and Baruch Professor Emerita Bridgett M. Davis. Following The World According to Fannie Davis, now in pre-production as a major motion picture, Love, Rita tells the remarkable story of Prof. Davis's beloved sister Rita, a vital and dauntless woman who passed before her time and inspired her younger sister to live boldly and unapologetically. Love, Rita is a powerful tribute to family, love, grief, and legacy that Danzy Senna has called "achingly beautiful, truthful and deep." Prof. Davis will read from her new book and talk about it with Prof. Naima Coster, whose acclaimed novels include Halsey Street and What's Mine and Yours.
