SUMMARY:Wright Library to Host Author Gilbert King
DESCRIPTION:Wright Memorial Public Library is pleased to present a special evening of conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Gilbert King on Friday\, November 7 at 5:00 p.m. to kick off the 2025 Dayton Literary Peace Prize weekend. Wright Library’s Community Room seating capacity is 80\, so please arrive early to ensure your seat. The program will also be livestreamed through Zoom\, with a link available at wrightlibrary.org. \nKnown for his narrative nonfiction exploring issues of civil rights and injustice\, King was a 2013 runner-up for the Dayton Literary Peace Prize for his New York Times bestseller\, Devil in the Grove\, which also garnered the Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction. \nThe Dayton Literary Peace Prize\, inaugurated in 2006\, is the first and only annual U.S. literary award recognizing the power of the written word to promote peace. “Gilbert King’s work embodies the spirit of the Dayton Literary Peace Prize. We are honored to host him for what is certain to be an insightful conversation\,” said Wright Library Director Kristi Hale. \nHis latest book\, Bone Valley: A True Story of Injustice and Redemption in the Heart of Florida\, was published in October 2025. Bone Valley is the result of King’s multi-year investigation into the story of Leo Schofield of Lakeland\, Fla.\, who was convicted of his wife’s murder in 1988 after a flawed investigation and inadequate defense – despite maintaining his innocence. Schofield served over 30 years and was declared innocent\, and released\, in 2024.  King also produces and hosts a multi-part narrative podcast\, also called Bone Valley\, about the case\, which is currently in its third season. \nKing has written about race\, civil rights\, and the death penalty for the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, and The Atlantic\, and he was a 2019-2020 fellow at the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center for Writers and Scholars at the New York Public Library. King’s earlier books include The Execution of Willie Francis (2008)\, and Beneath a Ruthless Sun (2018). He lives in Brooklyn. \nThe November 7th author talk at Wright Library is made possible with support from the Wright Memorial Library Foundation and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation.
