Adjunct Faculty member and illustrator Kathryn E. Shoemaker and author Irene N. Watts have won a 2017 Vine Award for Canadian Jewish Literature for their graphic novel: Seeking Refuge. The Jury described the book as a “superb graphic novel dramatizing the Kindertransport, a powerful story enhanced by first hand experience and beautiful black and white illustrations”. There is a copy of the novel available in the iSchool office for viewing.
Congratulations Kathryn!
