Presented by Stavroula Harissis, a multilingual poet and librarian with a passion for international travel. Her poetry has been published in the Journal of Ordinary Thought and featured on WBEZ Chicago. She has been working in public libraries since 2016 and is currently the South Branch Manager at the Mount Prospect Public Library.
