---------------------------------

             Summary: Python: Pandas conversion from `datetime.date` columns
                 Key: ARROW-370
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-370
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Uwe L. Korn


It seems to be a common practice to store some columns as Python 
{{datetime.date}} to avoid issues with far future/past dates in Pandas. We can 
natively store this data in Arrow as well in Parquet but there is no conversion 
available yet. A simple way could be to provide a path pandas.Series -> 
numpy.ndarray(datetime64[D]) -> arrow.Array(DATE))
