Celebrating the written word

Recently, the 12th Annual Author’s Brunch sponsored by the Claire T. Carney Library Associates drew a full complement of guests.

Those in attendance spanned a surfeit of careers, which included politics, literature and other vital affiliations. But it is their interest in the written word that continues to unite this group and keep them returning year after year.

The organization hosted a table of distinguished writers which included; Susan Mizruchi, Leigh Montville, and Megan Marshall. The authors performed with superb elegance and clarity, engaged in a question and answer period, then went on to sign copies of their books and joined in conversation with those in attendance.

The program also included an introduction and words from the host, Chancellor Professor Emeritus Dr. Mel B. Yoken, followed by comments from Dr. Peggy Fellouris, President of the Library Association, and Terrance Burton, Dean of Claire T. Carney Library.
