Emmy-nominated producer, writer, and freelance journalist Nora Neus will visit the Columbus Metropolitan Library’s South High Branch on April 11 as part of the Authors at the Library series.





Her most recent book is “Renegade Girls,” a young adult graphic novel that fictionalizes the 19th-century relationship between reporter Helena “Nell” Cusack and street photographer Alice Austin. Neus worked as a journalist for CNN and other outlets before writing novels, including 24 Hours in Charlottesville: An Oral History of the Stand Against White Supremacy, and Muhammad Najem, War Reporter. We discuss how she researched the novel and how her personal experiences shape her storytelling. Listen in!
