The Lannan Foundation is pleased to announce six new programs in the Lannan Literary Videos series. These additions include sixty-minute videos from Kazuo Ishiguro, Barbara Guest, Jack Gilbert, Grace Paley, Joy Harjo, and Lucille Clifton. The Lannan video series was established in order to kelp exceptional writers find a larger audience as well as to provide the literary community with documentation of contemporary voices in literature. Lannan is always seeking the names of charitable and educational programs to whom this video series would be beneficial. Only publishers may submit books for consideration.
