Ruth Borun Lecture Series

Join us for an evening with New York Times bestselling author Amy Stewart at the 2025 Ruth Borun Lecture Series. On Friday, May 9, 2025, at the LA Zoo’s Witherbee Auditorium, Stewart will take us on a journey into The Tree Collectors: Tales of Arboreal Obsession, her latest book exploring the extraordinary people whose lives have been transformed by their passion for trees. Best known for her popular non-fiction works The Drunken Botanist and Wicked Plants, Stewart expected to find horticultural fanatics driven to plant every species of oak or maple. Instead, she uncovered something far more profound—a deep, personal connection between people and trees rooted in community, vision, and healing. Don’t miss this chance to hear Amy Stewart share the fascinating stories behind The Tree Collectors and meet fellow plant and nature enthusiasts. Reserve your spot today!

An Evening with Christie Brinkley (virtual event)

Supermodel Christie Brinkley talks about her new memoir UPTOWN GIRL, which charts her meteoric career from 1974, when she was "discovered" outside a Paris phone booth, which set off a modeling career that would land her on the covers of hundreds of magazines and cement her legacy as an All-American icon. Although she's lived more than fifty years in the public eye, she shares stories from her roller-coaster life. In "Uptown Girl," Christie Brinkley shares what life has been like, both in front of and behind the cameras, considering the girl she was alongside the woman she has become. Her stories are as heartening as they are eye-opening, as she recounts her most formative chapters, including the betrayal by her biological father as a child, her lifelong passion for art, her whirlwind career, her four tumultuous marriages—including her heartbreaking divorce from Billy Joel—and the harrowing experiences that almost cut her life short.
