Throughout her career, Brown has won several literary awards including the Barnes and Noble Discover Award and the Janet Heidinger Kafka Prize. She comes to Des Moines from her home state of Virginia, where she lives with her husband and three children. This program will be moderated by Rekha Basu, a columnist for The Des Moines Register.
