Sara Lawrence Lightfoot

Sara Lawrence Lightfoot, sociologist, professor at the Harvard Grad. School of Education and chair of the MacArthur Foundation, is coming to Miami to share her 10th book, Exit: The Endings That Set Us Free. In her book she explores the ways we leave one thing and move on to the next by interviewing a variety of people in the midst of change: a 16 ear old boy forced to leave Iran in the midst of the violent civil war; a Catholic priest who leaves the Church and a gay man who finds peace after coming out.  (Thursday, June 14, 8pm, Books & Books Coral Gables)
