SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Jena Friedman
DESCRIPTION:Register and view future Author Talks here: https://libraryc.org/willardlib \nGrowing up\, Jena Friedman didn’t care about being likable. And she never wanted to be a comedian\, either. A child of the 90s\, she wouldn’t discover her knack for the funny business until research for her college thesis led her to take an improv class in Chicago. \nThat anthropology paper\, written on race\, class\, and gender in the city’s comedy scene\, was\, in Jena’s own words\, “just as funny as it sounds.” But it did lay the groundwork for a career that has seen her write and produce for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart\, the Late Show with David Letterman\, and the Oscar nominated Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. \nFriedman’s debut collection\, Not Funny\, takes on the third rails of modern life in Jena’s bold and subversive style\, with essays that explore cancel culture\, sexism\, work\, celebrity worship\, and…dead baby jokes. \nIn a moment where women’s rights are being rolled back\, fascism is on the rise\, and so many of us could use a breather as we struggle to get by\, Jena applies her unique gifts to pull a laugh from things deemed too raw\, too precious\, and too scary to joke about. She shares her stories of taking on those who told her she was too brash\, too edgy\, and too “unlikable” to make it. She deftly dissects how we get coerced into silence on the issues that matter most\, until they’ve gone too far afield to be turned back around again. And she shares her struggles to make it (-ish) in a world that\, more often than not\, would rather tune out than listen to a woman confronting the indignities we’ve been told to bear. \nAbout the Author: Jena Friedman is a comedian\, filmmaker\, and creator of AMC’s Indefensible and Soft Focus with Jena Friedman on Adult Swim. She has worked on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart\, Late Show with David Letterman\, and her writing has appeared in The New Yorker\, ARTNET\, and The Guardian. She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay\, and won a Writer’s Guild of America award for her work on Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. She splits her time between Los Angeles and New York. Find out more at JenaFriedman.com and follow her on Twitter @JenaFriedman.

SUMMARY:Mother Jones
DESCRIPTION:Chances are you’ve never heard of Mother Jones\, but this is a story you’ll want to hear.  Born Mary Harris in Cork Co. Ireland\, she immigrated with her parents to Canada as a teen and then to the United States as an adult.  She lost her husband and four children in the Yellow Fever outbreak in Memphis in 1867.  She left Memphis and moved to Chicago\, opening her own dress shop which she then lost in the Great Chicago Fire.  Next\, she joined the Knights of Labor and became active in strike organization.  Her involvement in the labor movement continued to grow until she was labeled by one US Attorney as “The most dangerous woman in America.”  She was particularly passionate about protecting children.  On May 17th a plaque will be installed on the Greenway in her honor\, the first plaque honoring the labor movement to be installed in Indiana.  Come learn more about this strong\, fascinating woman who so influenced our country. \n  \nOur speaker is Steve Bottoms\, a labor history researcher as well as a former Gibson County Commissioner.  He worked for Whirlpool\, and at union coal mines in the 1970’s. \n  \nPresentation will be in the Browning Gallery at Willard Public Library. \n  \nThis presentation is a joint program of the Tri-State Genealogical Society and Willard Public Library

SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: William Kent Krueger
DESCRIPTION:Register and view future Author Talks here: https://libraryc.org/willardlib \nYou are in for a riveting hour online with New York Times bestselling author William Kent Krueger! Join us as he discusses his newest book in the Cork O’Connor series Fox Creek and his other works!  \nFox Creek follows Cork O”Connor in a race against time to save his wife\, a mysterious stranger\, and an Ojibwe healer from bloodthirsty mercenaries. The ancient Ojibwe healer Henry Meloux has had a vision of his death. As he walks the Northwoods in solitude\, he tries to prepare himself peacefully for the end of his long life. But peace is destined to elude him as hunters fill the woods seeking a woman named Dolores Morriseau\, a stranger who had come to the healer for shelter and the gift of his wisdom. Meloux guides this stranger and his great niece\, Cork O’Connor’s wife\, to safety deep into the Boundary Waters\, his home for more than a century. Meanwhile\, in Aurora\, Cork works feverishly to identify the hunters and the reason for their relentless pursuit\, but he has little to go on. He knows only too well that with each passing hour time is running out. But his fiercest enemy in this deadly game of cat and mouse may well be his own deep self-doubt about his ability to save those he loves. \nAbout the Author: Krueger writes a mystery series set in the north woods of Minnesota. His protagonist is Cork O’Connor\, the former sheriff of Tamarack County and a man of mixed heritage—part Irish and part Ojibwe. His work has received a number of awards\, including the Minnesota Book Award\, the Loft-McKnight Fiction Award\, the Anthony Award\, the Barry Award\, the Dilys Award\, and the Friends of American Writers Prize.  \nOrdinary Grace\, his stand-alone novel published in 2013\, received the Edgar Award\, given by the Mystery Writers of America in recognition for the best novel published in that year. The companion novel\, This Tender Land\, was published in September 2019 and spent nearly six months on the New York Times bestseller list. His last nine novels were all New York Times bestsellers. He’s been married for nearly fifty years to a marvelous woman who is a retired attorney. He makes his home in St. Paul\, a city he dearly loves.

SUMMARY:Ernest Hemingway: One True Sentence
DESCRIPTION:Join us as Mark Cirino presents “Ernest Hemingway: One True Sentence” on Monday\, April 17 at 6:00pm in the Browning Gallery (lower level) at Willard Public Library. Book signing to follow! \n\nErnest Hemingway’s cartoonish “Papa” persona – the brawler\, boozer\, braggart\, big game hunter\, and chronic womanizer— often overshadows his greatness as a writer. In this presentation\, we will ignore the temptations of biography and myth to concentrate instead on the most enduring contribution of Hemingway’s life: his writing. Using Hemingway’s “one true sentence” credo as inspiration\, we will examine representative sentences from texts such as The Sun Also Rises\, A Farewell to Arms\, and A Moveable Feast to discover techniques that gave his work such lasting power. \n\n\nDr. Mark Cirino is a Professor of English and Melvin M. Peterson Endowed Chair of English at the University of Evansville\, where he has taught American literature for fifteen years. He has authored or edited ten books\, including Ernest Hemingway: Thought in Action\, Reading Hemingway’s Across the River and into the Trees\, and most recently\, One True Sentence: Writers & Readers on Hemingway’s Art\, which he edited with Michael Von Cannon. He hosts the Hemingway Society’s popular One True Podcast\, which explores Ernest Hemingway’s life\, work\, and world.\n
