Stanford alumnus, David Henry Hwang ‘79, is the 2024 Rathbun Visiting Fellow and will offer the Rathbun Lecture on a Meaningful Life in historic Memorial Church. The lecture is a tradition established by the late Stanford alumnus and law professor, Harry Rathbun, BA ‘16, ENG ‘20, LLB ‘29 and was revived by the Office for Religious and Spiritual Life through the Rathbun Fund for Exploring What Leads to a Meaningful Life.

Rathbun Visiting Fellows come to Stanford to engage students and members of the university community in conversations about their personal ethics, beliefs, and motivations.

David Henry Hwang is best known as the author of M. Butterfly, which won the 1988 Tony, Drama Desk, John Gassner, and Outer Critics Circle Awards, and was a Finalist for the 1989 Pulitzer Prize.
