Dominique Browning on Making a New Garden--And a New Life
The fall 2011 Rocky Hills Lecture will feature garden writer Dominique Browning
After losing her job and the magazine she edited for more than a decade, Dominique Browning was forced to slow down and find a new structure for her life. She will read from her new book, show photographs, and talk about how she said goodbye to a garden she lovingly tended for decades and how she created a new one—one seed at a time.

She was Editor in Chief of House & Garden for more than a decade, and has worked with and written for numerous publications includin the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, O-the Oprah magazine, Departures, and Wired, among others.
