Next year marks the centennial of the multi-strand relationship between Latvia and the United States. One of the most fascinating--as well as less-known--strands of that rich relationship, is the long line of artists, photographers, architects and other artisans and craftspeople who were born in Latvia, emigrated to the US, became successful there, and left an imprint on their respective crafts, the US and the world. Explore this remarkable dimension of the Latvian-American relationship with noted journalist and historian Gordon F. Sander on Thursday, October 14th at 2:45 in Room 10 when Gordon presents the first lecture of his series "Born in Latvia, Made in America."
