Lisa Solomon writes about food—and about life, history and culture through her experiences with food. Her literary essays and feature articles have been published in several newspapers, national magazines and anthologies, and her holiday food columns have been published in dozens of media outlets across the country. Solomon will bring an assortment of homemade pastries to the Joynes Reading Room, to share with students as she discusses food writing. She will read her first published food column, and share her writing about a continually evolving range of nourishing food experiences.
