Bristol Art Museum talk on An Uncommon Man

Please join me at 7 p.m. Thursday, September 20, at the Rogers Free Library, 525 Hope Street in Bristol, R.I. for an illustrated talk on the late Senator Claiborne Pell, subject of my 2011 biography, AN UNCOMMON MAN: The Life and Times of Claiborne Pell.

The free evening, which will include a book signing and reception, is sponsored by the Bristol Art Museum, which is undertaking a renovation of its quarters at historic Linden Place, near the library. I toured today with the museum's chair, Patricia Woods, and was greatly impressed! This will be one cool place, with studio space for working artists on the museum's second floor. As always, I am happy to support an arts cause.
