Morristown Festival of Books presents: The Beauty of Dusk: An Evening with Frank Bruni

Friday, October 07, 2022 @ 7:30pm



Mayo Performing Arts Center (MPAC)
100 South Street, Morristown, NJ 07960

Join long-time New York Times columnist, bestselling author, and Duke University professor Frank Bruni as he discusses his book, The Beauty of Dusk: On Vision Lost and Found. From bestselling author Frank Bruni comes a wise and moving memoir about aging, affliction, and optimism after partially losing his eyesight.

Each ticket includes a signed copy of The Beauty of Dusk: On Vision Lost and Found

Frank Bruni has been a prominent journalist for more than three decades, including more than twenty-five years at The New York Times, the last ten of them as a nationally renowned op-ed columnist who appeared frequently as a television commentator. He was also a White House correspondent for the Times, its Rome bureau chief, and, for five years, its chief restaurant critic. He is the author of three New York Times bestsellers. In July 2021, he became a full professor at Duke University, teaching media-oriented classes in the Sanford School of Public Policy. He continues to write his popular weekly newsletter for the Times and to produce occasional essays as one of the newspaper’s official Contributing Opinion Writers.

The Morristown Festival of Books is thrilled to welcome Frank Bruni as our Keynote Speaker, in conversation with bestselling author and MSNBC news anchor Katy Tur.

Proceeds from our annual fundraising Keynote Event contribute to our support of literacy and education in our community, this year through a partnership with Literacy Volunteers of Morris County. In addition, this revenue, along with the generosity of our sponsors, helps keep our main Saturday book festival free and open to all. Learn more at www.morristownbooks.org.
