Illinois Authors | Paul Simon Public Policy Institute | SIU

Illinois Authors builds on our initiative Illinois 101, in which more than 20 prominent Illinoisans recommended histories, biographies, novels, or essays to provide a more nuanced understanding of our state. The recommendations were published as our Illinois 101 booklet. Now, Illinois Authors provides an important venue for book events and author discussions focusing on Illinois history, politics, economics, sports, and culture. This program is partially funded thanks to a grant from Ameren Illinois.
