Her debut book, “Lightning Flowers,” was a finalist for the 2021 Kirkus Prize in Nonfiction, a New York Times Book Review Editor’s Choice/Staff Pick, and shortlisted for the J. Anthony Lukas Work-in-Progress Prize from Columbia Graduate School of Journalism and the Nieman Foundation at Harvard University. Standefer earned her Master of Fine Arts in Nonfiction from the University of Arizona and her B.A. in English from Colorado College.

Come together as a campus community for Block 2 First Mondays, Sept. 26, 11 a.m. in Kathryn Mohrman Theatre in Armstrong Hall. To join virtually, register in advance for this webinar. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

The First Mondays Event Series is a campus-wide forum that aims to engage all members of the CC community, including students, staff, administrators, and faculty. The series creates opportunities for the whole community to gather, encouraging everyone to be part of the intellectual life of the college, and facilitating discourse among students, faculty, and staff, across courses, disciplines, and divisions. Classes are dismissed early on the first Monday of each block so that all may attend the First Mondays event.
