Six speakers/performers included authors Nassrine Azimi and Michel Wasserman, Beate's son and daughter Nicole Gordon and Geoffrey Paul Gordon, Rubin Museum trustee Richard Lanier, and Japanese performance artist/dancer Eiko. The event was followed by a reception in the very cool Rubin cafe on the first floor, with authors signing books to the sounds of live Nepalese musicians. Enjoy the photos from the event!
