In observance of Banned Book Week, as well as the 50th anniversary of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel (and one of the nation’s most frequently challenged books), 'To Kill A Mockingbird', AADL will hold a special evening event featuring Emmy Award-Winning Filmmaker Mary McDonagh Murphy, author of 'Scout, Atticus & Boo: A Celebration Of Fifty Years Of To Kill A Mockingbird'
The evening will begin with remarks by Library Director Josie Parker on AADL material challenges. Mary McDonagh Murphy will then show excerpts from her new documentary 'Hey, Boo: Harper Lee & To Kill a Mockingbird' and discuss the documentary and her book Scout, Atticus & Boo: A Celebration Of Fifty Years Of To Kill A Mockingbird. She will also cover the controversies surrounding To Kill A Mockingbird, and why it has been one of the most challenged books in America.
Mary McDonagh Murphy’s new documentary and book explore the novel’s power, influence and popularity. With reflections from Anna Quindlen, Tom Brokaw, James McBride, James Patterson, Wally Lamb, Oprah Winfrey and more, they chronicle the many ways the novel has shaped lives and careers. Harper Lee has not given an interview since 1964, but Murphy’s reporting, research and rare interviews with the author’s sister and friends add new details and photos to the remarkable story of an astonishing phenomenon.
A book signing will follow and books will be available for sale at the event.
