Marianne Wiggins
In conversation with Dennis Keeley, Chair of Photography and Imaging, Art Center College of Design
The author of “Evidence of Things Unseen” interweaves narratives from two different eras: the fraught passion between turn-of-the-twentieth-century icon Edward Curtis and his muse-wife, Clara; and a twenty-first-century journey of redemption.
Marianne Wiggins is the author of ten books of fiction, including her 1989 classic novel, John Dollar, an experimental tour de force and feminist revision of the Robinson Crusoe story and Golding's Lord of the Flies, and Evidence of Things Unseen, her 2003 epic novel about the dawning of the Atomic Age through the eyes of an amateur chemist in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which was nominated both for the Pulitzer Prize and for the National Book Award.
