The Los Angeles Times Festival of Books began in 1996 with a simple goal: to bring together the people who create books with the people who love to read them. The festival was an immediate success and has become the largest and most prestigious book festival in the country, attracting more than 130,000 book lovers each year.

Rebecca Solnit is the best-selling author of 10 books as well as countless articles for which she has received numerous awards. In 2003 she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for River of Shadows. Her most recent book is Storming the Gates of Paradise: Landscapes for Politics.
