SUMMARY:Genealogy of a Murder: Unearthing the Secrets of Our Past That Determine Our Future
DESCRIPTION:Members: Free; non-members: $10 \nNYT journalist and bestselling author Lisa Belkin will discuss her new book Genealogy of a Murder and the creative journey she took while writing her most ambitious and most personal project. It’s a family story\, and also a universal one\, spanning four generations of three families and ending in the murder of a police officer in 1960. It’s about three men\, all inheritors of the American Dream. But it’s also about all of us and how our pasts create ourselves. How does one descendant of immigrants become the cop\, one his killer\, and one\, Belkin’s stepfather\, who inadvertently set this murder into motion? \nAbout the presenter: Lisa Belkin has spent a career covering American social issues\, as a daily journalist\, a magazine writer and a book author. During nearly 30 years at The New York Times\, she was variously a national correspondent\, a medical reporter\, a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine\, and the creator of the Life’s Work column and the Motherlode blog. She has spent the past decade in the digital realm\, in senior positions at HuffPost and Yahoo News. Belkin is the author of four books and is a graduate of Princeton University\, where she has returned as a visiting professor in the Humanities Council\, teaching narrative non- fiction as an instrument of social change. Since 2015 she has taught reporting\, writing and narrative non-fiction at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism.
