The Denver Post Pen & Podium Series is a five-part literary lecture series that features some of the world's most distinguished and thought-provoking writers. Each presentation includes an engaging lecture by a renowned author followed by a question and answer period during which audience members' submitted questions are asked by a moderator. 2023-24 featured authors include Yaa Gyasi (October 2023), Frances Mayes & Ruth Richl In Conversation (November 2023), Kristin Hannah (February 2024), Ta-Nehisi Coates & Michael Chabon in Conversation (March 2024), and David Grann (May 2024).
