Neilly Series: Jeffrey Allen Tucker
Hawkins-Carlson Room, Rush Rhees Library
February 6, 2019 5:30pm
One of the most prolific African American authors of his time, John
A. Williams (1925–2015) made his mark as a journalist, educator,
and writer. Conversations with John A. Williams collects
twenty-three interviews with the three-time winner of the
American Book Award, beginning with a discussion in 1969 of his
early works and ending with a previously unpublished interview
from 2005. Gathered from print periodicals as well as radio and
television programs, these interviews address a range of topics,
including anti-black violence, Williams’s WWII naval service, race
and publishing, Martin Luther King Jr., growing up in Syracuse,
traveling in Africa and Europe, and his reputation as an angry
black writer.
Associate Professor in the Department of English Jeffrey Allen
Tucker will discuss the process of editing this volume, which
included conducting face-to-face interviews with the author and
archival research in the River Campus Libraries’ Department of
Rare Books Special Collections and Preservation.
The lecture is free and open to the public. Reserved parking is available in the Library Lot. For more information,
call 585-275-4461.
