Victoria Kastner, author of Julia Morgan: An Intimate Biography of the Trailblazing Architect, published by Chronicle Books, will
be the Guest Speaker at our General Meeting on
Tuesday, November 8, 2022
at 6:30 pm.

When Victoria Kastner paid her first visit to Hearst Castle many years ago, she was told, “An architect named Julia Morgan built this entire estate, but we don’t know anything about her.” From then on, she was hooked. She spent more than three decades as the castle’s official historian, and her previous books include the definitive trilogy of its history. Now an independent researcher and lecturer, she resides in Los Osos, California.

We hope to see all SLO NightWriters members there.
We will meet at the United Church of Christ, at 11245 Los Osos Valley Rd, San Luis Obispo, CA 93405.
