5:45PM - Silent Auction & Light Buffet | 7:30PM - Award Presentations | 8:00PM - David Grann's Keynote | 8:50PM - Book Signing
The evening will highlight four awardees for their work and dedication to the humanities throughout the state of Missouri. Following the awards dinner and program, we will have a public presentation from David Grann.
Grann's latest book, Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI, is a true crime tale that unravels one of the most sinister crimes and racial injustices in American history. With more than 49 weeks on The New York Times nonfiction bestseller list, it was a finalist for the National Book Award and ranked #1 on both Shelf Awareness and Amazon’s Single Best Books of the Year. The PBS NewsHour-New York Times Book club, 'Now Read This,' selected Killers of the Flower Moon for their February 2018 read. Following a highly publicized bidding war for the film rights, Killers of the Flower Moon is now in production with Martin Scorcese as director and starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
