Mystery Guest to Visit Ethics and Ecology Class

Please be sure to come to class on Thursday November 20 to meet "The Shadow," a mystery guest and the author of one of our assigned texts. (To visit his website, just click on the appropriate link above.) Like Gary Ferguson, this author qualifies as a "nature writer." The photo on the left I took at The Oregon Book Awards last Sunday evening where he was the master of ceremonies. Barry Lopez received The Charles Erskine Scott Wood Distinguished Writer Award. Other winners included Linda Zuckerman for A Taste for Rabbit (Young Adult Literature), Laura Kessler for Dancing with Rose (Sarah Winnemucca Award for Creative Nonfiction), and Penelope Scambly Schott for A Is For Anne: Mistress Hutchinson Disturbs the Commonwealth (Stafford/Hall Award for Poetry).
