The reception and signing (in the j school library) begins at 6 pm and the panel in is from 7 to 8:30 pm at 121 North Gate Hall at the corner of Hearst and Euclid.   More details.

Photographs from the book will be exhibited through April 28th in the Graduate School of Journalism Photo Gallery at North Gate Hall.

Ken Light teaches photojournalism and directs the Center for Photography at the journalism school.  Melanie Light is the executive director of Fotovision which offers classes on photojournalism (it is worth signing up for their newsletter).
