A Tribute to Dorothy Lichtenstein
Lichtenstein Center founder Robert Reeves kicked off the 49th annual Southampton Writers Conference with a tribute to the beloved philanthropist and benefactor of the Center, Dorothy Lichtenstein, who passed away on July 4th.
The Lichtenstein Center houses Stony Brook University’s academic programs, graduate and undergraduate, in creative writing, film, and writing for television, along with community programming and advanced training.
The Lichtenstein Center promotes the creation of original work in a range of disciplines, while offering opportunities for collaboration and experimentation outside of traditional program borders. . .
