SUMMARY:[FAN] Class: A Memoir of Motherhood\, Hunger\, and Higher Education Stephanie Land
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, November 13\, 2023\, 7:00 PM\, Class: A Memoir of Motherhood\, Hunger\, and Higher Education\, a\nFAN webinar featuring Stephanie Land\, in conversation with Molly Smith Metzler. \nRegister: www.bit.ly/LandFANWebinar \nBONUS BOOK GIVEAWAY! We are giving away copies of Class to randomly selected Zoom attendees. Details\non the webinar registration page. \nWhen Stephanie Land set out to write her memoir Maid\, she never could have imagined what was to come.\nHandpicked by President Barack Obama as one of the best books of 2019\, it was called “an eye-opening\njourney into the lives of the working poor” (People). Later it was adapted into the hit Netflix series Maid\, which\nwas viewed by 67 million households and was Netflix’s fourth most-watched show in 2021. Land’s escape out\nof poverty and abuse in search of a better life inspired millions. \nMaid was a story about a housecleaner\, but it was also a story about a woman with a dream. In Class: A\nMemoir of Motherhood\, Hunger\, and Higher Education\, Land takes us with her as she finishes college and\npursues her writing career. Facing barriers at every turn including a byzantine loan system\, not having enough\nmoney for food\, navigating the judgments of professors and fellow students who didn’t understand the\ndemands of attending college while under the poverty line—Land finds a way to survive once again\, finally\ngraduating in her mid-thirties. \nClass paints an intimate and heartbreaking portrait of motherhood as it converges and often conflicts with\npersonal desire and professional ambition. Who has the right to create art? Who has the right to go to college?\nAnd what kind of work is valued in our culture? In clear\, candid\, and moving prose\, Class grapples with these\nquestions\, offering a searing indictment of America’s educational system and an inspiring testimony of a\nmother’s triumph against all odds. \nLand will be in conversation with award-winning playwright and screenwriter Molly Smith Metzler\, the creator\,\nwriter\, and executive producer of the Netflix limited series Maid\, which earned her an Emmy nomination for\nOutstanding Writing of a Limited Series. Maid was nominated for three Emmy Awards\, three Golden Globe\nAwards\, two Critics Choice Awards\, two TCA Awards\, The Humanitas Prize\, and more. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.
