SUMMARY:MOAD presents TO WRITE MIAMI: A Reading with Les Standiford
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, July 31st from 7:30-9pm the Museum of Art & Design (MOAD) at MDC presents TO WRITE MIAMI: A Reading with Les Standiford. The series\, To Write Miami features writers who choose a city as their muse give voice to both a place and a people. Part scribe\, part dreamer\, they issue facts along with fantasies\, leaving behind a history of the intangible realities of urban life—of a people’s heartbreak and of their joy\, of their loss and of their growth. To Write Miami is a series of eight readings that explore the city’s fascinating relationship with literature. The series demonstrates how writers pay homage to Miami and how\, in turn\, Miami feeds their creativity. Each reading will include performative elements\, along with reflections on how the writing process often begins before words are even placed on the page. This Event is FREE and Open to the Public\, RSVP here.\n  \nAbout Les Standiford:\nLes Standiford is Founding Director of the Creative Writing Program at Florida International University in Miami and the author of twenty-two books\, including a series of thrillers starring hard-luck South Florida building contractor John Deal. In Presidential Deal (1998)\, the First Lady\, based loosely on Hillary Clinton\, is kidnapped in Miami. (Don’t worry folks\, it was all made up.) He has also written works of history\, including Last Train to Paradise: Henry Flagler and the Spectacular Rise and Fall of the Railroad that Crossed an Ocean\, now in its 35th printing\, and The Man Who Invented Christmas: How Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol Rescued His Career and Revived our Holiday Spirits\, which was made into a feature film starring Dan Stevens and Christopher Plummer.
