Goucher Nonfiction: The Places You'll Go

Monday, October 28, 2019 at 5:30 PM until 6:30 PMUTC -05:00

If you’re thinking about getting your MFA, join a group of Goucher graduates for a conversation about how studying nonfiction transformed their writing and their careers. They’ll also take your questions about the program and suggest strategies for easily adding graduate school to the rest of your life. And director Leslie Rubinkowski will talk about two additions to the program: the first-ever New York residency and a new online-only option — both beginning in January 2020.

The panel includes:

Jesse Holland, a 2012 graduate and current MFA faculty member, the author of four books, and Visiting Distinguished Scholar-in-Residence at the Library of Congress.
2011 graduate Earl Swift, whose Chesapeake Requiem was named as a best book of 2018 by, among others, The Washington Post, Smithsonian, NPR, and Esquire.
Laura Tillman, a 2013 MFA graduate at work on her second book, a follow-up to her acclaimed debut, The Long Shadow of Small Ghosts.
2015 alum Stephanie Gorton, whose first book, Citizen Reporters, will be published in February 2020.

Registration is no longer available because the registration deadline has passed.
