SUMMARY:Jonathan Haupt & Tim Conroy - Pat Conroy as Nature Writer
DESCRIPTION:Presented by 303 Associates \nClick the orange “Book A Program” button on our website to RSVPportroyalsoundfoundation.org \n$10/person (plus fees) \nHonoring Earth Day\, Jonathan Haupt will discuss the nature writing of Pat Conroy\, the bestselling author of The Water Is Wide\, The Great Santini\, The Prince of Tides\, and more. From his obscure boyhood poetry to his beloved lyrical adult prose\, Conroy wrote about the beauty of our natural world as both wondrous and perilous\, using the lowcountry not only as a setting but as the central character of his many books. This presentation will highlight representative examples of Conroy’s nature writing from across the span of his writing life\, drawing attention to how Conroy’s relationship with nature is also ultimately a relationship with his deeply felt spiritual and humanistic faith. Haupt will also discuss on the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center honors and continues Conroy’s legacy as both writer and educator\, with examples of exhibits and educational programs also reflective of the author’s nature writings. \nJonathan Haupt is the Executive Director of the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center\, the past director of the University of South Carolina Press\, and co-editor of the anthology Our Prince of Scribes: Writers Remember Pat Conroy\, winner of 17 book awards. He is a frequent guest book reviewer for the Pulitzer Prize-winning Charleston Post and Courier. In 2020\, he was honored with the Doug Marlette Literacy Leadership Award\, a lifetime achievement recognition presented by the Pulpwood Queens\, the largest read-and-meet book club in the U.S. Under Jonathan’s leadership\, the Conroy Center has been recognized as an American Library Association Literary Landmark\, an affiliate of the American Writers Museum\, and winner of the Civitas Award for Tourism Leadership. With Claire Bennett\, Jonathan also serves as co-mentor to the student leaders of DAYLO: Diversity Awareness Youth Literacy Organization\, who in turn have been recognized with a national commendation from the American Association of School Librarians\, the South Carolina Education Association’s Richard W. Riley Award for Human and Civil Rights\, and an honorable mention for the South Carolina Library Association’s Intellectual Freedom Award.
