628: JEAN HARRIS, PRISON PANEL: Redemption Time
MS. JEAN HARRIS HAS BEEN FORCED TO CANCEL HER APPEARANCE AT THIS EVENT FOR HEALTH REASONS. THE PANEL DISCUSSION LED BY JAMES R. COLDREN WILL TAKE PLACE AS PLANNED. THE EVENT IS NOW 90 MINUTES IN LENGTH.

Harris, who served 12 years for the murder of The Scarsdale Diet author Dr. Herman Tarnower, founded the Children of Bedford Fund that provides educational opportunities for the children of inmates. She’s also an ardent supporter of the nation’s small network of prison nurseries. Following her talk, Harris is joined by a distinguished, cross-disciplinary panel to discuss hurdles to—and the possibilities for—redemption during and after incarceration. Participants include Village Voice reporter Jennifer Gonnerman, author of Life on the Outside; DePaul Univ. professor Ann Folwell Stanford; lawyer and DePaul Univ. professor Andrea Lyon; artist and DuSable Museum founder Margaret Burroughs; and author Zak Mucha (The Beggar’s Shore). Moderator is James R. Coldren, president of the John Howard Association.
