FREE ticketed event

The National Museum of Natural History invites you to attend a conversation between the museum’s Sant Director, Kirk Johnson and Kirk Wallace Johnson, author of The Feather Thief.

Author Kirk W. Johnson will discuss his true-crime account of the theft of 299 scientifically invaluable birds from the British Natural History Museum in Tring. Johnson’s madcap investigation reveals an underground community of avid Victorian salmon fly-tiers, who pine after exotic plumes, and explores the destructive human drive to possess natural beauty.
