For the past four years, photographer Michael Nye has been listening and asking questions about hunger.

Michael’s multimedia presentation will be followed with an informal Q&A session.

His photography and audio exhibitions, Children of Children (stories of teenage pregnancy) and Fine Line; Mental Health/Mental Illness have traveled to over 120 cities in the United States and continue to tour. Recipient of a Mid-America National Endowment for the Arts grant in photography, and a Kronkosky Foundation grant, Michael has participated in two Arts America tours in the Middle East and Asia, and exhibited and lectured widely in museums and universities.
