E-mail List for Author Series

With the great interest in our Chorover Author Series, we would like to start an e-mail list to inform interested library customers. Anyone who would like to be automatically informed about upcoming author appearances, please send an e-mail to swa@noblenet.org

We would like to have a representative from all local book groups sign up so that they can forward the e-mail to their members. Thank you for making our author appearances so successful.

Estelle Epstein, local author, Read at Library

The Swampscott Public Library had local author Estelle Pottern Epstein speak as part of the Chorover Author Series.  Ms. Epstein, a published poet and playwright, has written a book, I Heard My Father’s Voice, about an immigrant traveling from Russian post-World War I to live in America.  The audience enjoyed a reading from the book, as well as a lively Q&A about the writing and self-publishing process.
