Let’s all welcome our second international guest – Thi Bui
Thi Bui is the author of the bestselling and award winning graphic memoir, The Best We Could Do. She is the illustrator of the children’s book A Different Pond, which won a Caldecott Honor, Finding Papa, which received an honor from the Asian Pacific American Librarians Association, and Chicken of the Sea, a collaboration with her son, Hien.
Her short comics can be found on The Nib, Reveal News, PEN America, and BOOM California. She is currently writing and drawing NOWHERELAND, a work of graphic nonfiction about Asian Americans, immigrant detention, and deportation.
Thi will also be co-hosting one of our free talks on Academy Day and taking part in our Market Day. Make sure to keep an eye on our socials for our full program announcement as bookings will be essential for talks and workshops on both days. But the Market Hall on Sunday is always open to the public!
