Meet the Author of a New Book about Niagara Falls’ Love Canal Catastrophe April 20

Posted by Tim on April 19, 2022 in Event, Workshops

The Honors College is excited to host author Keith O’Brien for a small group discussion about his new book, Paradise Falls: The True Story of an Environmental Catastrophe.

“The staggering story of an unlikely band of mothers in the 1970s who discovered Hooker Chemical’s deadly secret of Love Canal—exposing one of America’s most devastating toxic waste disasters and sparking the modern environmental movement as we know it today.”

KEITH O’BRIEN has written for The New York Times, Politico, and The Boston Globe. A longtime contributor to National Public Radio, he has appeared on All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and This American Life, among other programs. See a short trailer for the book here.

The first fifteen people who RSVP for the event will receive a free copy of the book.
