John Grisham to Moderate Hillary Rodham Clinton Tour Stop at DPAC on October 17
The Hillary Rodham Clinton tour today announced John Grisham, author of fifty consecutive #1 bestsellers, is set to moderate the Durham tour stop during the 16-city tour this fall, Secretary Clinton’s first tour of the U.S. since 2019. The show will take place October 17 at 7 p.m. at Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC). Grisham will join the former First Lady, Senator from New York, and U.S. Secretary of State live on stage and take audiences on a journey of unvarnished exchanges on politics, democracy, the threats we face, as well as friendship, aging, marriage, and how we can all work together to shape a future to be proud of.
Secretary Clinton, also a New York Times best-selling author, and GRAMMY-award winner, will release her new book Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty through Simon & Schuster on September 17, 2024.
Attendees will journey through the landscape of today’s political climate, exploring ways to shape a better future for our children and grandchildren—all while enjoying a dynamic and thought-provoking evening.
Grisham is an expert storyteller whose unforgettable characters fight for justice in a world that isn’t always fair. Grisham is a two-time winner of the Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction and was honored with the Library of Congress Creative Achievement Award for Fiction. His books have been translated into nearly fifty languages. When he’s not writing, Grisham serves on the board of directors of the Innocence Project and Centurion Ministries, two national organizations dedicated to exonerating those who have been wrongfully convicted. Much of his fiction explores deep-seated problems in the criminal justice system.
