Diary of a Reluctant Dreamer: An Afternoon with Dr. Alberto Ledesma
Event box

In his hybrid memoir, Dr. Alberto Ledesma wonders, at what point does a long-time undocumented immigrant become an American in the making? From undocumented little boy to "hyper-documented" university professor, Ledesma's experiences from immigrant to student to academic are shared with honest words and illustrated with colorful images in his graphic novel Diary of a Reluctant Dreamer. Join the University Library and Cross Cultural Centers as they welcome Dr. Ledesma for a humorous, gritty, and multilayered portrait of undocumented immigrant life in urban America.
Presented by the University Library, Honors College, Cross Cultural Centers and the Mind Matters Initiative.
