Singer Jill Switzer Will Interview Author Susan Shapiro Barash at the Kravis Center

As part of its ArtSmart Lecture Series, the Raymond F. Kravis Center for the Performing Arts will present a revealing conversation between author Susan Shapiro Barash and singer Jill Switzer. The telltale topic: A Passion for More: Affairs that Make or Break Us.

Scheduled for Monday, February 13, at 1:30 p.m. in the Kravis Center's Founders Room, the lecture will cover how women of today are exploring their needs with a striking absence of guilt. In Barash's revealing, updated investigation, she will discuss:

· How do affairs empower them and how affairs of today differ from those of the past?
