Award-winning photojournalist and University of Texas at Austin professor Donna DeCesare speaks about her new book Unsettled/Desasosiego (UT Press) on Thursday, September 26, at 7 p.m. at the Harry Ransom Center.

After 30 years of photographing gang members and their families and collecting images that have been featured in Aperture, Mother Jones, and other publications, DeCesare uncovers the effects of decades of war and gang violence on the lives of youths in Central America and in refugee communities in the United States in this bilingual publication.

A book signing follows. The event is free, but donations are welcome. Seating is limited. Line forms upon arrival of the first patron, and doors open 30 minutes in advance.

Attendees may enter to win two photography books from The University of Texas Press: Photojournalists on War: The Untold Stories from Iraq and Inside the Wire: Photographs from Texas and Arkansas Prisons.
