Start off the week by welcoming reporter and documentary filmmaker Ximena Natera to campus tomorrow afternoon! Natera specializes in migration, human rights violations, peace processes, and collective memory at the U.S. and Mexico border. Her work has been recognized by Mexico’s National Journalism Award, the Gabriel Garcia Márquez Foundation, and Pictures of the Year Latam.

The renowned children’s book writer and illustrator David Wiesner visited campus to give his lecture, “The Art of the Picture Book”, on November 18th. Wiesner is known for his strikingly beautiful watercolor and gouache work, and is only the second person in history to win 3 Caldecott Medals. He shared valuable insights he’s gathered over the course of his successful career with the Bryn Mawr community, encouraging the audience to consider the inextricable connection between words and images.
