Listening In

Echoes and Artifacts from Maryland's Mother County

Meet Merideth Taylor; writer, photographer and author.

Merideth Taylor, writer, photographer and author of Listening In: Echoes and Artifacts from Maryland’s Mother County will give an informal talk about her work on February 24 at 4:00 pm via Zoom.

An exhibit of her artwork will be on view in the Lexington Park Library Art Gallery from January 18 to February 28. 

Reviewers have called Listening In “a stunning portrayal of a remarkable landscape and culture fast disappearing,” “a true treasure, especially for those from St. Mary’s County,” and “a must read.” Washington Post writer Adrienne Higgins praised the book: “For more than 20 years, Merideth Taylor has been bearing witness to old, fading buildings in St. Mary’s County, Md., where she lives. Most are small homes or farmsteads, empty and cloaked in a mantle of abandonment and decay. Contained in their flaking paint, sagging roofs and enveloping vines are the traces of lives that have been lived and the joys and sorrows of the people who once occupied them."

This program includes a Q & A session.
