Texas Book Festival Celebrates 15 Years


The 2010 Texas Book Festival commemorates 15 years of celebrating authors and their contributions to the culture of literacy, ideas and imagination. Founded in 1995 by Laura Bush and a group of interested volunteers, the Festival is held every year on the grounds of the Texas Capitol. It features readings and discussions from more than 200 renowned Texas and national authors.

The Texas Book Festival will take place on October 16 and 17 in the State Capitol and venues nearby. This year's slate of authors includes former First Lady Laura Bush, author of Spoken From the Heart, Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours, and National Public Radio's Michele Norris, author of The Grace of Silence: A Memoir
