Community discussion about Middle East journalist Anthony Shadid

Anthony Shadid, a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning foreign correspondent for The New York Times, was  scheduled to come to Cleveland in March as part of the Northeast Ohio Consortium for Middle East Studies speaker series. Widely regarded as the best American journalist covering the Middle East, Shadid died while covering the conflict in Syria this past February.

To honor his work and memory, a community discussion of Shadid’s last book “House of Stone” will be held at the Cuyahoga County Public Library in Beachwood.

Dan Moulthrop, curator of conversation for the Civic Commons, will facilitate the discussion, which is free and open to the public. Registration is requested at http://www.cuyahogalibrary.org/EventRegistration.aspx?EventInstanceID=70047.
