Virtual Author Event with Bonnie Tsui

Watch our virtual author event with Bonnie Tsui, author of "Why We Swim" on Monday, June 29 at 7:00 p.m. through this link: facebook.com/hectv. The event will then be archived for later viewing at hecmedia.org.

We swim for pleasure, for exercise, for healing. But humans, unlike other animals that are drawn to water, are not natural-born swimmers. Our evolutionary ancestors learned for survival; now, in the twenty-first century, swimming is one of the most popular activities in the world. New York Times contributor Bonnie Tsui, a swimmer herself, dives into the deep, from the San Francisco Bay to the South China Sea, investigating what about water seduces us and why we come back to it again and again.
