Meet the Authors

This summer, the Natural Hazards Center will again host the Meet the Authors event on Monday evening, July 13, 2020 during the Natural Hazards Workshop. The event will coincide with the hosted reception and poster session and give workshop participants the opportunity to interact with the authors of timely and important books on hazards and disasters.

Aside from featuring recent books written by thought leaders in our community, the Meet the Authors event will also serve as a fundraiser for two important initiatives that bring members of underrepresented groups to the Workshop. A portion of the sales at the event will be donated to either the Mary Fran Myers Scholarship or the Bill Anderson Fund, so know that each book you buy will support next generation hazards and disasters scholars and practitioners.

If you are the author or editor of a book published between 2017 to 2020, you are encouraged to participate!
