Sarah Schulman is not simply a powerful writer but also a sophisticated observer and practitioner of politics, a novelist, playwright, screenwriter, essayist and historian whose work offers startling insights into contemporary culture and our opportunities for activism and political change. Her latest book, “Let the Record Show,” is a history of ACT UP New York, the late ‘80s and early ‘90s activist group that reshaped AIDS activism, and she will be in conversation with National Book Award-winning author and Fairfield professor Phil Klay to discuss writing and politics.

Sarah Schulman is a novelist, playwright, screenwriter, nonfiction writer and AIDS historian. She holds an endowed chair in creative writing at Northwestern University and is on the advisory board of Jewish Voice for Peace.
