SUMMARY:An Evening with Morgan Radford
DESCRIPTION:A BONUS BOOK FESTIVAL EVENT! \nFriday\, May 8 | 6:00 PM\nGreensboro History Museum\nFree and open to all \nGreensboro native and NBC News anchor Morgan Radford returns home to celebrate her debut novel\, Now Then. Presented by Greensboro Bound in partnership with the Greensboro Public Library\, the Greensboro Public Library Foundation\, and Scuppernong Books\, this special evening highlights Radford’s transition from award-winning journalist to fiction author. \nNow Then interweaves the lives of a mother and daughter. One comes of age at Harvard in the 1990s\, while the other confronts revolution and resilience in 1950s Havana. As secrets unfold through a series of letters\, Radford crafts a powerful narrative about hidden histories\, second chances\, and the choices and loves that shape our lives. \nRadford’s compelling fiction debut draws from elements of her personal life\, professional background\, and the history of her family’s migration from Jamaica and Cuba. An award-winning journalist whose reporting has spanned foreign policy\, U.S. political movements\, and major national news\, Radford calls this novel “one of the richest\, most rewarding endeavors of my lifetime.” \nRadford is an anchor for NBC News and co-host of NBC News Daily. A graduate of Harvard University and Columbia Journalism School\, and a former Fulbright Scholar\, she has received multiple awards for her reporting featured on TODAY\, NBC Nightly News\, MSNBC\, and Telemundo. With Now Then\, she brings emotional depth and journalistic rigor to a moving work of literary fiction that is already being celebrated for its power\, tenderness\, and resonance. \n\nThis event will be moderated by Portia Mount\, Founder + CEO Advisor\, Mount Creative. An accomplished keynote and 2x Tedx speaker\, Portia frequently addresses topics around women and leadership\, and the evolving demands on transformative leaders in the future of work. She is the co-author of the best-selling career advice book\, “Kick Some Glass: Ten Ways Women Succeed at Work on Their Own Terms” (McGraw Hill Education\, 2019)\, and hosts the “Ungovernable Women” podcast.
