Today on 30 Minutes we feature a panel from the Pima County Public Library Nuestras Raices Pavillion at the 2015 Tucson Festival Books called The Distorted Mirror. If books are the mirrors of the world in which we live, why are so many faces missing? Young adult authors Claudia Guadalupe Martínez and Isabel Quintero read from their novels and share their experiences about the importance of seeing oneself in literature. This panel is moderated by local artist Mel Dominguez. This is part 1 of a 2 part series.
