Dear Students and Colleagues,
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the David Pecker lecture presented by Paul Levitz, David Pecker Distinguished Visiting Professor of Publishing for the 2014-2015 academic year. The title of his lecture is “The Era of Constant Connection.” Mr. Levitz will explore how we as publishers define our mission in an era when our own audiences are constantly connected: to each other and to the flow of raw data, old and new.
Mr. Levitz is a comic fan, editor, writer, and executive. He formerly was president and publisher of DC Comics and presently teaches Publishing Comics and Graphic Novels and Publishing Transmedia at Pace University. He is currently working on a book on Will Eisner and the birth of the graphic novel for Abrams Comic Arts. It is an honor to have Mr. Levitz serving as the David Pecker Distinguished Professor for the 2014-2015 academic year.
His first lecture will take place on Thursday, October 30, 2014 at Pace University, 163 Williams St, 18th floor, from 6-8p.m. We would appreciate your response as early as possible to assure you a place at this important event. Please RSVP to puboffice@pace.edu no later than Monday, October 13, 2014.
