Co-presented with the TOWN HALL CENTER FOR CIVIC LIFE. Visiting a city which has many people engaging in the subject matter of his study is University of Virginia professor Olivier Zunz. Philanthropy in America: A History (Princeton University Press) is an in depth history and an examination of the current direction of philanthropy in this country. "A readable account of how philanthropy caught on in the United States more pervasively than any other nation ... Zunz mixes case studies, mini-biography, and academic theory to demonstrate that both the superwealthy and common folks have invested in giving to the needy as part of an effort to make America a better place ... A sterling example of how an academic author can combine high-level theory with interesting, real-world examples." – Kirkus Reviews. $5 tickets are available at the door starting at 6:30 p.m., or in advance via www.brownpapertickets.com (1-800-838-3006).
