The Asian American Studies Program welcomes novelist and painter Julie Otsuka, author of WHEN THE EMPEROR WAS DIVINE, about the internment of a Japanese American family during World War II, and the National Book Award-nominated THE BUDDHA IN THE ATTIC, about a group of young Japanese "pictures brides" in the early 1900s.

Otsuka will be giving a Q&A at 4:30 pm in Stewart Center, Room 318. At 7:30 pm she will be reading from her work in Krannert Auditorium, Room 140, followed by a book-signing. These events are co-sponsored by the Department of English.
