Catholic Contemporary Writer Lecture: 10/17/12


The Loyola/Notre Dame Library is pleased to announce this year’s Catholic Contemporary Writer, Anne M. Butler. Dr. Butler, a Baltimore native and alumna of the Institute of Notre Dame, will discuss her newest book, Across God’s Frontiers: Catholic Sisters in the American West, 1850-1920. Join us at 6:00pm on October 17 in Ridley Auditorium for what is sure to be a thought-provoking discussion about the intersection of Catholicism, women’s self-empowerment, and how nuns have historically worked to effect meaningful change even in the most desolate of circumstances. A book signing will follow the reading and lecture.
