“I am incredibly moved by the librarians and advocates pushing back, like the #FReadomFighters, standing up for the right to read, often at great personal risk.”— @sarahjessicaparker

We were thrilled to join our Executive Producer Sarah Jessica Parker last week to the @PENAmerica Literary Gala where she received the PEN/Audible Literary Service Honoree. Congratulations to this fierce steward of books and her continued support of the brave librarians and advocates fighting for everyone’s right to read.
