Meet the Authors Event

Please join us for the third Meet the Authors event at this year’s Natural Hazards Workshop! Book authors will be available for discussion on Monday, July 14, 2025, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. MDT. The event will coincide with the hosted reception and poster session and give Workshop participants the opportunity to interact with the authors of 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 three important initiatives that bring members of underrepresented groups to the Workshop. Book authors are encouraged to donate a portion their sales at the event to either the Mary Fran Myers Scholarship, the Disability and Disasters Award, or the Bill Anderson Fund. Therefore, each book purchased will support hazards and disasters scholars and practitioners.
