An Evening with Joyce Maynard

Celebrate the 50 anniversary of the amazing Friends of NAPL by joining bestselling author Joyce Maynard for an engaging, inspiring, & free talk!

Joyce published her first book 52 years ago, when she was 19 years old. Since then, she’s published two memoirs & twelve novels, including Labor Day and To Die For, adapted for films that starred Nicole Kidman and Kate Winslet. Joyce is the founder of the Lake Atitlan Memoir Workshop, held at her retreat center home in a small Mayan village in Guatemala, where she mentors women in the telling of their stories. Joyce is a fellow of MacDowell and Yaddo artists’ residencies. She makes her home in Northern California and her home state of New Hampshire.
