Reiberg Reading Series: Angela Palm

The IUPUI Arts and Humanities Institute and the IUPUI English Department present the Rufus and Louise Reiberg Reading Series featuring Angela Palm. Palm will read from and discuss her new book, Riverine: A Memoir from Anywhere but Here, a mesmerizing account of Palm’s childhood in rural Indiana on the banks of the Kankakee River, which flooded each year due to a man-made alteration of its course. The memoir is an Indie Next selection and winner of the 2014 Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize. Palm has been awarded the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference Axinn Foundation Fellowship in Narrative Nonfiction. Her work has been published in Ecotone, At Length Magazine, Brevity, Paper Darts, Essay Daily, and elsewhere. She lives in Vermont, where she works as a developmental editor and teaches creative writing at Champlain College and the New England Young Writers’ Conference.
