Author Lecture- American Icarus: A Memoir of Father and Country

Pythia Peay chronicles the iconic American story of her father, Joe Carroll: the larger-than-life but troubled, alcoholic TWA airman and Missouri farmer she'd adored as a girl but had fled as an adult, his dramatic last days and redemptive death through the intervention of a quirky Hospice team, and her discovery of the larger American myths and narratives that shaped his life.
