Honoring

Arthur Spector
with Special Guest Adam Gopnik

Join us to celebrate the power of the book as we honor Arthur Spector, the Rosenbach’s Chair Emeritus, and welcome special guest Adam Gopnik, best known as a staff writer at The New Yorker for the past forty years.

Adam and Arthur will discuss the impact of the humblest of objects—the book—and how the Rosenbach is introducing new audiences to its wonders.
