Literacy Action Inc. hosted Pulitzer Prize-winning authors at its second annual Writers for Readers event at the Atlanta History Center on February 4, 2010. The panel of authors discussed what the written word has meant to their lives and careers. “We hope Writers for Readers will help spread the word that illiteracy is not uncommon, but it can be solved. Functional illiteracy is an intergenerational issue that impacts all our lives, and this life-changing skill shouldn't be taken for granted,” said Emily Ellison, Literacy Action’s president and executive director.
