Leading authors on life and writingAbout Book Lust with Nancy Pearl
Seattle's own "action figure librarian," best-selling author, and literary critic Nancy Pearl sits down each month with authors, poets, and other literary figures for conversations about books, reading, and the process and art of writing. There's no one better qualified than Nancy, who brings an informed reader's perspective to lively conversation and in-depth dialogs about all things literary.
Nancy Pearl, author of the best-selling "Book Lust" series, creator of the internationally recognized program "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book" (which became "Seattle Reads"), and model for the world-famous Archee McPhee "Librarian Action Figure," is host of Book Lust with Nancy Pearl on the Seattle Channel.
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray joins host Nancy Pearl for a special edition of Book Lust. An avid reader, Murray struggled with reading as a young child. Thanks to his mother's love of books and dedicated teachers, he overcame reading difficulties and developed a lifelong passion for books. Murray sits down with Pearl at the Central Library to discuss books that have influenced him, books he couldn't finish and the role Dr. Seuss played in sparking his lifelong reading habit. Plus, find out what Murray's reading now and Pearl's suggested reading list for the mayor.
