    In a tribute to Porter’s life, work, and legacy, actress Pennylyn White brings to life the woman behind the pen in a probing performance using extracts from the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winning author’s body of fiction, essays, and poetry, as well as her personal letters.

    White will present Katherine Anne Porter, A Driving Desire on Saturday, November 14, at 7:00 p.m. at the Wittliff Collections on the seventh floor of Texas State’s Alkek Library. Co-sponsored by the Department of English, with special thanks to the Jane Hope Hastings Philanthropic Trust, this event is free and open to the public.
