Author John Grisham and Deirdre Enright, the founder of the UVA Innocence Project, are leading the featured conversation at the 14th annual Tom Tom Festival, in an event at The Paramount Theater in Charlottesville scheduled for Wednesday, April 22, at 7 p.m.
Grisham is a board member of the New York-based Innocence Project and the author of, among other works, The Innocent Man, a non-fiction book published in 2006 that tells the story of Innocence Project client Ron Williamson’s wrongful conviction and subsequent exoneration.
The UVA Innocence Project was launched in 2008 by Enright, a 1992 UVA alum who represented death row inmates in Mississippi and Richmond before opening a Virginia Capital Resource Center office in Charlottesville.
Admission to this event is Included in Tom Tom Festival’s All Access Badge.
Otherwise, tickets are on sale now and may be reserved online at www.theparamount.net.
