Celebrated singer, songwriter, activist and counterculture icon, Joan Baez was playing in the stacks at Kepler’s Books back in the 1950s and ’60s. Now she’s helping Kepler’s celebrate its 70th anniversary. For this event she’ll be joined in conversation by Kimberly Ford, former adjunct professor at Berkeley. The program will also include remarks from author Barry Eisers V.R. Ferose. The admission price—65% of which is tax-deductible in support of Kepler’s Literary Foundation—includes a signed copy of Baez’s 2023 book Am I Pretty When I Fly? An Album of Upside Down Drawings.
