You are invited to hear, "The Empty Frame: If you don't believe in God, do you believe in 'nothing?'" beginning at 7:30 pm, Wednesday, September 14th 2005, at DUUC in Kreves Hall.  We stop at 9 pm for informal conversation.

Eric Zorn is a 1980 graduate of the University of Michigan where he was a senior editor at the Michigan Daily and a creative-writing/English Literature major.  After serving a four-month internship at the Miami Herald, he came to work at the Chicago  Tribune in the summer of 1980.  After five years as a feature writer and radio columnist in the Tempo section, he moved to the metropolitan news staff, where in late 1986, he became a news-feature columnist. 

That column, Hometowns, gradually evolved into the commentary column that bears his name.  It runs Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays on the front of the Metro Section.

He is a co-author of the 1990 book, "Murder of Innocence," an exploration of the life and tragic rampage of Winnetka schoolhouse killer Laurie Dann.

Eric Zorn, his wife Johanna (an executive producer at WBEZ-FM, Chicago's public radio station) and their three children live on the city's Northwest Side.
