Bret Lott Inducted into SC Academy of Authors Hall of Fame

On April 11, the South Carolina Academy of Authors will induct College of Charleston professor of English Bret Lott into the South Carolina Literary Hall of Fame. Lott, along with this year’s fellow inductees Dorothea Benton Frank, William Ioor, and Marjorie Wentworth, will be honored by the academy, which is devoted to the identification, recognition and promotion of the state’s distinguished authors and emerging writers. Past inductees include Pat Conroy, Josephine Humphreys, Terrence Hayes and James Dickey.

The reception and induction ceremony includes recognition of the writers and their induction in the South Carolina Academy of Authors literary hall of fame. Tickets, $35 a person, are still available. For more information please visit scacademyofauthors.org/news.html.

The South Carolina Academy of Authors was founded at Anderson University in 1986. Its public recognition of the state’s literary talents serves to increase the general readership of authors working today and leads to the rediscovery of works from the past.
