Segment 1:
Award-winning author Terry Tempest Williams looked forward to reading the volumes of journals her mother left to her after her death. But when the time came, Williams found only empty pages. The blank pages invited questions and in a new memoir, she explores the silence for answers. On Monday, Williams joins us to talk about her latest book, “When Women Were Birds.”
Guest:

Terry Tempest Williams will read from her new book, “When Women Were Birds,” on Tuesday, June 12 at 10:30 a.m. at the University of Utah College of Nursing, Annette Poulson Cumming Building (10 S. 2000 East), University of Utah.
