2. Representative Mike Lawler Joins APTQI for Spear Physical Therapy Practice Visit in Tarrytown (riverjournalonline.com) — A recent visit by Rep. Mike Lawler to Spear Physical Therapy's Tarrytown clinic highlighted how local therapists help older residents prevent dangerous falls and reduce healthcare costs.

John Free and the Purpose of Photography (fstoppers.com) — A noted street photographer and teacher was born in nearby Tarrytown before developing his craft and philosophy in Europe and Los Angeles.
