Bryan Collier, the award-winning author and illustrator of more than 25 children's books, will be on our campus on Friday, April 29. Works by Collier typically center on the African American experience and have repeatedly garnered him such awards as the Caldecott Medal (three times); the Coretta Scott King Award (five times); and the New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book.
Collier will deliver two presentations about his work, both in the Assembly Hall of Campbell Student Union. The first will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 10:50 a.m., and the second from 12:00 to 12:50 p.m. Both presentations will be followed by book signings. Various books by Collier are available in the Barnes & Noble at Buffalo State Bookstore.
Collier's visit is sponsored by the Office of Equity and Diversity, the Faculty Student Association, and the Elementary Education and Reading Department.
