Dwight Garner of the New York Times called \u201cThe Yellow House,\u201d \u201ca major book that I suspect will come to be considered among the essential memoirs of this vexing decade.\u201d Angela Flournoy, writing for the New York Times Book Review, called it \u201can instantly essential text.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Broom holds a master\u2019s degree in journalism from the University of California, Berkeley, and has taught at the Columbia University School of the Arts. Her work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, and O, the Oprah Magazine. She received a 2016 Creative Nonfiction Grant from the Whiting Foundation and makes her home in Harlem.<\/span><\/p>\n

For 40 years, the Fletcher Lecture Series has brought major writers and literary figures to campus to speak and interact with students. Past lecturers have included luminaries such as Robert Penn Warren, Noel Polk, Lee Smith, Gerald Early, Marianne Robinson, Yuri Herrera, Maurice Carlos Ruffin and the filmmaker Behn Zeitlin.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2025 recipient of the Linda Stanga Award for Excellence in Literary Studies will also be recognized at the event. This year\u2019s format will be an extended interview, conducted by Dr. Alex Fabrizio Sumpter, associate professor in the ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ Department of English, Modern Languages, and Cultural Studies, and Andrew Barbier, access services librarian at ÐÓ°É´«Ã½\u2019 Ellender Memorial Library.<\/span><\/p>\n
