Authors, Authors

This month we were lucky to have two authors visit Boys' Latin.

Richard Sobol, “The Traveling Photographer,” talked to us about his photographs and related his first-person accounts of encounters with animals and people living in unique destinations around the world.  Mr. Sobol’s photographs appear regularly in publications such as National Geographic, Time, Audubon, Newsweek, and The New York Times, and he is the author of numerous books relating to wildlife, international cultures, and conservation of the environment.  The boys especially enjoyed hearing his stories of traveling through Africa to photograph gorillas.  He took time to personalize and sign books for the boys after his presentation.

We also had a visit from local author Erin Hagar.  She has recently published a book about the development of Legos.  She told the boys about her research and a bit about the publishing process.  As expected the boys were VERY interested in everything Lego.
