Open to High School and College Students
10 winners to see a presentation by New York Times
columnist and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Thomas Friedman, and meet with him
afterwards.
The Mizel Museum is interested in
exploring how one’s sense of place influences his or her work (as a journalist,
historian, etc). Thomas Friedman has said about his work as a columnist, “I’ve
always thought that to be a successful columnist…it’s important to be from somewhere
– that you’re grounded in a world view that you take around the world, and you
measure against other things you see. I am always looking for Minnesota.”
