Event Details

Join us for an informal conversation with Pico Iyer. Travel writer for Time Magazine since 1986, prolific novelist and closest journalist to the 14th Dalai Lama, Iyer is also a regular contributor to Harper's, The New York Review of Books and The New York Times. In a Q-and-A facilitated by Ashley Karlin, a PhD Candidate in Rhetoric at Carnegie Mellon, he will be fielding questions about his travels with the Dalai Lama, visits with Leonard Cohen in a mountaintop retreat and his own relationship with stillness, silence and connection in this bustling, burgeoning global culture of the 21st century.
