Presentation At Norwalk Library With Local Author Jan. 12

From Norwalk Public Library: AuthorSpeak at Norwalk Public Library will kick-off the new year with a presentation by local author Bette Bono of her new book The Better Angels, on Sunday, January 12, at 2 p.m., in the Main Auditorium, located at 1 Belden Avenue, Norwalk.

Bette Bono’s writing mixes many things she loves including history, mystery, time travel, adventure, romance, senior citizens, and superheroes. She doesn’t believe those last two or three categories are mutually exclusive. Her characters are members of the American Association of Remarkable Persons ("the Other AARP”), a group of senior citizens who use their time travel ability to solve mysteries in the past. Before beginning her writing career, Bette pursued a variety of other interests. She worked as a political analyst in Washington, D.C., then earned a law degree from Harvard and relocated to Connecticut. After a decade of work as an attorney, Bette turned to public school teaching, serving in both the classroom and as a union steward.

When Bette isn’t writing, she works in her garden, hikes through parks and nature preserves, visits historic sites, explores local libraries, and listens to people tell their life stories.
Copies of The Better Angels will be available for purchase and signing. This program is free and open to the public.

Please register for this program by contacting Cynde Bloom Lahey, Director of Library Information Services, at (203) 899-2780 ext. 15133, or clahey@norwalkpl.org.
