Thank you, Harriet Clark, for your insightful and generous conversations with SUNY Purchase students, both on stage and in more intimate settings. 📚✨

Your words stayed with us: “You read most books, but some books read you.”

Thank you for writing that kind of book and for reminding us that “the experiences of those in prison and their loved ones are worthy not only of recording, but of art.”
