In this month’s “Behind the Issue,” editor-in-chief Olivia Maillet talks with contributing writer Olivia Mahl about how Unbound Book Festival co-executive director Alex George was inspired to bring national and internationally recognized authors to Columbia.
George, himself, is a published author. And after attending book festivals around the world where he talked about his books, he thought Columbia was the perfect community to start a book festival of his own. Unbound is supported by volunteers, sponsors and the Columbia community, making the event free and accessible.
