An Evening With Nature Writer Robert Michael Pyle and Actor David Cross

Join us for a live event featuring local nature writer and butterfly expert Dr. Robert Michael Pyle in conversation with actor David Cross (Arrested Development, Mr. Show). The two will discuss their roles in the recent film, The Dark Divide, a fictionalized account of Pyle’s 1995 trek across the Gifford Pinchot Wilderness in search of new butterfly species, and a way through the grief after losing his wife. Pyle has written 22 books including Where Bigfoot Walks: Crossing the Dark Divide, upon which the film is based.

This event is cosponsored by Orion Magazine, “America’s Best Environmental Magazine,” a quarterly, 100% ad-free publication, in print since 1982. Orion is a reader-supported nonprofit at the convergence of ecology, the arts, and social justice, and the magazine has maintained a long relationship with Robert Michael Pyle since its inception, publishing many of his essays over the years.

This event will be moderated by Kathleen Dean Moore, author of Earth’s Wild Music and Wild Comfort.
