Join us for an enchanting evening with noted author and scholar Thomas Laird to learn more about the myths and fact of Tibet as told by the Dalai Lama.

Many of the world's major magazines have published Laird's work over the past thirty years: National Geographic, Time, Newsweek, Men's Journal, Conde Nast Traveler, Outside, The New York Times, The Sunday Telegraph, Stern, The South China Morning Post, People, Le Figaro, Geo, The Asahi Shinbum, Elle, and El Messagaro amongst many others. Grove Press published his debut non-fiction book in 2002, Into Tibet: The CIA's First Atomic Spy and His Secret Expedition to Lhasa. Peter Matthiessen wrote the text for Laird's first photography book, East of Lo Monthang and Ian Baker wrote the text for his second one The Dalai Lama's Secret Temple.

This talk will be followed by a book signing event by the author.
