Book Talk and Discussion with Ramona Emerson In-person
In collaboration with the Virginia G. Piper Center for Creative Writing, the Labriola Center will be co-hosting a book talk with Ramona Emerson, author of "Shutter." This book talk will take place on the second floor of Hayden Library in the Labriola Center from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. Dr. Jerome Clark (Diné), Assistant Professor, School of Humanities, Arts and Cultural Studies will lead the panel.
Ramona Emerson is a Diné writer and filmmaker originally from Tohatchi, New Mexico and received an MFA in Creative Writing from the Institute of American Indian Arts. After starting in forensic videography, she embarked upon a career as a photographer, writer, and editor. Her first novel, Shutter is about Rita Todacheene, a forensic photographer working for the Albuquerque police force who is able to see ghosts. Through gruesome prose and bone-chilling narratives, Shutter metamorphoses into a coming of age story steeped in the supernatural's haunted horrors.
