SUMMARY:Meet the Authors – Sandra Cohen-Rose and Ann Lambert
DESCRIPTION:Sandra Cohen-Rose and Ann Lambert will introduce their latest novels and discuss the ethical and social justice concerns they weave through their works – Climate Change\, Antisemitism\, White Supremacy\, and Women’s Rights.\nAnn Lambert\, author of the critically acclaimed Russell and Leduc Mystery Series\, The Birds That Stay\, The Dogs of Winter\, and Whale Fall\, has been writing\, directing\, and producing for the theatre for 40 years\, most recently with her Montreal-based company\, Theatre Ouest End. She retired after 30 years of teaching at Dawson College and is the former head of the playwriting program at the National Theatre School of Canada. Ann is also the vice president of The Theresa Foundation.\nSandra Cohen-Rose\, author of Waskaganish\, hailed as a “Multi-Faceted Feast\, a cleverly contrived\, fast-paced story…” and its compelling sequel\, Dangerous Dancing-A Saga of Love\, Deceit and New Beginning\, is a passionate storyteller who seamlessly weaves through her stories her ethical and social justice concerns cultivated during her 15-year tenure on the McGill University Medical Ethics … presiding over the Montreal and the National Council of Women of Canada\, and as a Dietitian-Nutritionist. She is the author of two well-received non-fiction books.
