Nature writer and former Utah State University student Rick Bass will read from his recent work at 8 p.m. Dec. 6 at the Eccles Conference Center Auditorium.

The event is sponsored by USU's department of English, Mountain West Center, American Studies Program, College of HASS, and nature writing journal Petroglyph, and is free. Students, faculty, writers and members of the community are invited.

As a student at Utah State, Bass studied wildlife science and geology, and nurtured his creative writing under the tutelage of Tom Lyon and Moyle Rice. Bass is the author of 16 books of fiction and non-fiction, including the novel Where the Sea Used to Be.

In conjunction with the reading, the Jenny and Thad Box Creative Writing Award will be presented. The award is presented to a student who demonstrates outstanding creative writing in any genre that explores the interconnectedness of people and the environment.
