Georgia Writers Hall of Fame

Southerners take great pride in their story-telling; a tradition enriched by the combined heritage of all of those who have lived in this region. To honor Georgia’s rich literary tradition, The Georgia Writers Hall of Fame was established, and this year marks its 20th anniversary.

“City Lights” host Lois Reitzes was joined via Zoom by University of Georgia Librarian Toby Graham, distinguished author and professor Ralph Eubanks, and the Oscar and Tony award-winning playwright Alfred Uhry.

The Hall of Fame was established by the University of Georgia in 2000 to honor the talented writers, playwrights, lyricists, and literacy legends in the state.
