Free Play: Improvisation in Life and Art, by Stephen Nachmanovitch

Why the honoree chose the book

This book has been paramount in helping me find my vocation within the academy. The lessons and core message give permission to embrace play as an integral aspect of our human experience. Playfulness should not end in childhood nor be admonished in adulthood, but rather enrich our emotional intelligence throughout a lifespan of development.
