Readers Meet the Author

Baylor University faculty are prolific writers, researchers, mentors, and teachers, and we welcome every opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments. "Readers Meet the Author," presented by the Office of the President and Office of the Provost, encourages opportunities for faculty and staff to gather virtually or in person for shared reflection and collegial conversation about big ideas.  

Featuring works selected by Baylor Provost Nancy Brickhouse, Ph.D., each opportunity to meet the author consists of an introduction from either the Provost or Baylor President Linda A. Livingstone, Ph.D., followed by a discussion with the author facilitated by a colleague or contemporary from the discipline and a question and answer session with attendees.

"This series presents a unique opportunity to showcase the exceptional work of our faculty while also celebrating that which is great about the academe — our ability to share perspectives and ideas with each other for the sake of civil academic discourse. These conversations also serve to sharpen our own intellectual sensibilities and make faculty scholarship even more accessible to our peers within the Baylor community,"-President Linda Livingstone

We're looking forward to releasing the 2022-2023 lineup of books in August of 2022.
