Arkansas State University Department of English, Philosophy, and World Languages with support from Black River Technical College present From the Miraculous to the Material, readings from Alan Lightman:
Einstein’s Dreams, The Accidental Universe, Searching for Stars on an Island in Maine, and The Miraculous from the Material Understanding the Wonders of Nature.
Alan Lightman is an American writer, physicist, and social entrepreneur. He received his PhD in theoretical physics in 1974. Since then, Lightman has done fundamental research on the astrophysics of black holes, astrophysical radiation processes, and stellar dynamics. He is a past chair of the High Energy Division of the American Astronomical Society and is an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
Lightman has served on the faculties of Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and was the first person at MIT to receive dual faculty appointments in science and in the humanities. He is currently professor of the practice of the humanities at MIT. He is the author of numerous books, both nonfiction and fiction, including Einstein’s Dreams, an international bestseller, and The Diagnosis, a finalist for the National Book Award in fiction. His essays concern the intersection of science, philosophy, and theology and have been twice named by the New York Times as among the best dozen essays of the year, in any category. His writing has appeared in the Atlantic, Granta, Harper’s, Nautilus, the New Yorker, the New York Review of Books, Salon, and many other publications.
In 2005, Lightman founded Harpswell, a nonprofit organization devoted to empowering young women leaders in Southeast Asia, and he has served as chair of its board.
Lightman is the host of the upcoming series SEARCHING: Our Quest for Meaning in the Age of Science, to premiere on public television in January 2023. The series is based on Lightman’s book Searching for Stars on an Island in Maine (2018) and his other writings.

FACULTY READINGS
Join us for an engaging evening of literature and insights at the Faculty Readings from Arkansas State University at the Bradbury Art Museum. Experience the diverse voices and creative talents of our esteemed faculty as they share excerpts from their latest works, spanning genres and disciplines. This event promises a captivating glimpse into the minds of our scholars, fostering a vibrant dialogue about the power of words and storytelling. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with the literary community at ASU.
Brought to the community by Arkansas State University’s English Department in collaboration with the Bradbury Art Museum, join us in listening to faculty readings from Arkansas State University’s Department of English, Philosophy, & World Languages. Faculty Readings presented by Arkansas State University faculty:
Bryan L. Moore is a professor of English at A-State, where he teaches American literature and enjoys nothing more than talking to students about lit. He has taught a wide range of other literature courses, including (recently) twentieth-century Continental European fiction, international science fiction, science fiction by women, world horror and gothic literature, and the sophomore level courses Intro to Poetry and Drama and World Literature. He is currently serving as assistant chair of English. A former Director of Composition, he believes Composition is the most important English class. He has published two scholarly books with Palgrave Macmillan on ecology and literature, many articles, reviews, and sundry items. He has published a few short stories, but he mostly writes to amuse himself. Outside family, music is his first love (lately, indy rock and classical). He feels he won life’s lottery when he married Carol, who is a children’s librarian, almost forty years ago (40 next Sep). They have two extraordinary, grown children, Patrick and Sophie. The Moores are owned by four cats, Neko, Purrcy, Libby, and Artie.
Ruth Supko Owens has always dreamed of writing creatively and decided last year that it was finally time to pursue that goal. Though her writing credentials are limited, she has spent her entire adult life educating young people—first as a high school teacher in Virginia, and for the past 27 years as a faculty member at A-State. Her first creative submission, More Like My Mother, was named a finalist in the 2024 Erma Bombeck Writing Competition, providing an affirming boost to her writing aspirations. However, her dual roles as Associate Professor of Spanish and Director of the A-State Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning still demand much of her time and energy. Each day presents a fierce, secret battle between her professional responsibilities and the creative endeavors she’d rather be pursuing. When she’s not working, writing, or thinking about writing, Ruth enjoys reading, playing tennis, biking, traveling, kayaking, and soaking in nature in all its forms.
Admission is free to this event, no RSVP necessary.
