Hello. I’m excited to announce my upcoming events for A GREEK TRAGEDY. I’ll be in the Bay Area, Portland, and New York.
I look forward to sharing what I learned over close to a decade of researching and writing about the October 28, 2015 refugee shipwreck off Lesvos.

Thanks to journalist Matthieu Aikins for the kind words about my upcoming book, "A Greek Tragedy" (March 25). For his book, "The Naked Don't Fear the Water," Matthieu traveled the refugee route from Kabul to Turkey to Greece. It's a beautiful and important work, a must read!
