- **Event Name**: Author Talk: Rachel Hartigan
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 06:30 pm – Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Rachel Hartigan has written about everything from the genetics of persimmon trees to the long road to women’s suffrage for National Geographic, where she worked as a writer, reporter, and editor from 2012 to 2024. A former editor of the Washington Post’s Book World, she also covered education and culture for U.S. News & World Report. Her stories about the 2017 and 2019 National Geographic–funded expeditions to Nikumaroro Island each generated more than a million unique views.

Unravel one of history's greatest mysteries in this spellbinding narrative exploring three leading theories of Amelia Earhart’s tragic disappearance.

In the spirit of nonfiction blockbusters like The Lost City of Z, Hartigan draws us into the world of Earhart's devotees and unspools a beguiling tale. The theories lead Hartigan from the pilot's birthplace of Atchison, Kansas to an expedition on a remote Pacific Island, where forensic dogs attempt to recover a potential sample of Earhart’s DNA.

As tantalizing new evidence mounts, Hartigan and her fellow investigators descend deeper into a world of conspiracy and obsession. Through its irresistible characters and prodigious research, Lost reveals not just why we remember Amelia Earhart as a trailblazer and adventurer, but why unsolved mysteries keep us forever searching for answers.
