**David George Haskell, Professor of Biology, Sewanee: The University of the South**

In this program, teacher and writer David George Haskell will expand his focus from one square meter (*The Forest Unseen*) to the expansive networked communities of life as observed in the presence of trees around the world. A keen observer of all living things, Haskell brings together ecological understanding with poetic narrative as he describes discoveries from root to branch tip, from one specimen to a forest of collaborators. He will expound upon webs of connections that weave through the environment, human nature, science, and ethics. His book, *The Songs of Trees*, will be available for purchase and signing.
