The lectures, which begin at 7 p.m. in Angelico Concert Hall, are offered by Dominican's Institute for Leadership Studies in association with Book Passage. Tickets are available from Book Passage.

Upcoming lectures include:
• April 13. Author Anthony Marra, in conversation with KQED Forum host Michael Krasney, will discuss this year's One Book One Marin selection, The Tsar of Love and Techno. Marra's book is a collection of interwoven stories about family, sacrifice, war, and the redemptive power of art. The event is free.
• May 1. In his new book, Drawndown, environmentalist Paul Hawken has assembled a team of more than 200 scholars, scientists, policymakers, business leaders, and activists to illustrate the 100 most substantive solutions to combat climate change that together will not only slow down the growth of carbon emissions, but reverse them altogether. Tickets are $35 and include a copy of Drawndown.
• May 3. In her new memoir, The Secrets of My Life, Caitlyn Jenner chronicles her life as Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete Bruce Jenner and her transition into womanhood. She will appear in conversation with the book's co-writer Buzz Bissinger, author of Friday Night Lights. Tickets are $40 and include a copy of The Secrets of My Life.

Additional authors are due to be added to the spring 2017 lineup at a later date.

The Institute for Leadership Studies will reserve a number of complimentary seats for Dominican faculty, staff, and students. These tickets will be available through a lottery system to be announced closer to the lecture.

Plenty of free parking is available in the Conlan Recreation Center parking lot at the intersection of Grand and Acacia avenues. Private Ocean is the lead 2016-2017 season sponsor.
