Garrison Keillor

Author, humorist and radio personality Garrison Keillor will visit campus for an evening of storytelling. His long-running live radio variety show, “A Prairie Home Companion,” is aired on over 900 public radio stations each week. The show received a Peabody Award in 1980 and was adapted into a movie starring Meryl Streep in 2006. Considered to be one of the most perceptive and wittiest commentators about Midwestern life, Keillor is the best-selling author of over a dozen books including Lake Wobegon Days, a recording of which won a Grammy Award,  Homegrown Democrat: A Few Plain Thoughts from the Heart of America, The Book of Guys and Life Among the Lutherans.
