Events
This below is a history of Pat Conroy events and signings for My Reading Life. Please support these booksellers that are so good at supporting Pat Conroy's works and so good at caring for the written word! (When Pat's next book comes out this page will be updated)
Please know that Pat Conroy participates in some events between book tours (as the one below for My Reading Life) but we do not post those events unless they are open to the public.
Incidentally in September 2012 there is a city-wide Pat Conroy read and it's posted on the home page of this site.
