A roster of distinguished friends and colleagues, including Aharon Appelfeld, Ariel Dorfman, Hillel Levine, John K. Roth, Reinhold Boschki, Pnina Lahav, Cynthia Ozick and more, in the fields of philosophy, theology, psychology, sociology, law, and literary endeavors participated in the project. In the introductory essay, "Elie Wiesel: A Biblical Life," lawyer Alan Dershowitz notes that in spite of Wiesel's experiences in Europe, "he showed the way from brutal victimiza- tion to gentle kindness. His very life became a shining example of an alter- native to the cycle of violence and retaliation which has characterized his- tory for millennia." Wiesel is the recipient of 90 hon- orary degrees from colleges around the country. Elie Wiesel will be the guest speaker at the Michigan State University spring convocation. The graduation ceremony begins at 1 p.m. Friday, May 7, in Breslin Center, Harrison at Kalamazoo streets, in East Lansing. The ceremony is open to the public; there is no admis- sion charge.

Garvin, in the process of having her second script produced for television, will be at the Birmingham Community House Saturday and Sunday, May 15 and 16. "This is the first time I'm doing this seminar," says Garvin, a Wayne State University graduate who became an anti-war activist and worked in radio and public relations before mov- ing to New York and then Los Angeles.

"Writers need more than a great Bonnie Garvin: "Writers need more than a great script" script," says Garvin, whose living is earned by doing rewrites and selling th rights to her projects.

Her second film that is being produced, The Law and Bernard Stroble for Showtirne, als is based on the legal system in Michigan. "Writers can have great careers and never have a movie made," insists Garvin, who now is intent on market ing work in Europe.
