Eight NASW authors—a record number—spoke about their books at the Tucson Festival of Books March 15-16.
They include Vince Beiser, Sadie Dingfelder, Nell Greenfieldboyce, Heather Hansen, Leigh Ann Henion, Ferris Jabr, Mary-Frances O'Connor, and Lynne Peeples.
They are among 31 NASW members whose books were published in 2024. Read backstories on all these books in NASW’s Advance Copy column.
NASW book editor Lynne Lamberg, a member of the TFoB book and author selection committee, interviewed Nell Greenfieldboyce and Lynne Peeples on the TFoB science stage on March 15.
The nation’s third largest book festival, the TFoB drew more than 100,000 people to the University of Arizona campus to hear 323 presenting authors. TFoB admission is free. Proceeds from vendors support local literacy organizations.
