Amy tyson from the History Department to present and interview them. I also want to thank all of you for being here. It is always so meaningful to feel support for artists and the arts. I think especially during this difficult time when bombast and quick takes seem to rule the day, a lot of us realize it is the quieter, more thoughtful and intelligent creations that actually sustain us. That said, i encourage you, if you like what you hear tonight, to support these great writers. I will post links to their books in the chat, and i know they are also on display at the depaul bookstore. We have one technical constraint that i would ask your help with potentially. We are limited to 100 participants tonight. I see we are at 52 right now. I anticipate that will grow in the next few minutes. If we do start to approach 100, i would ask some of you to go over to the link on facebook and watch it on Facebook Live so more people can continue to come in. Thank you very much. I will introduce amy
