SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: The Legacy of Julia Child's Kitchen with Smithsonian Curator Paula J. Johnson
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/102544/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \n\nJoin us for a conversation that’s sure to warm your heart (and make your stomach rumble)\, as we delve into the legacy of cooking icon Julia Child with Smithsonian curator and public historian Paula J. Johnson\, author of Julia Child’s Kitchen: The Design\, Tools\, Stories\, and Legacy of an Iconic Space. The book includes interviews with chefs who knew Julia well\, commentary on her favorite culinary tools and kitchen gadgets\, and a stunning array of photos. \nJulia Child’s 20’ x 14’ kitchen was a serious workspace and recipe‑testing lab that exuded a sense of mid‑century homey comfort. It has been on display at the National Museum of American History in Washington\, D.C.\, for most of the past twenty-three years\, and museum goers have made it a top destination. \nThe kitchen contains more than one thousand parts and pieces—tools\, appliances\, utensils\, furniture\, artwork\, knick‑knacks\, books\, and bits of whimsy—all reflecting Julia’s status as an accomplished chef\, gastronome\, delightful cooking teacher\, television trailblazer\, women’s advocate\, mentor\, and generous\, jovial friend. \nJulia Child’s Kitchen (and this online conversation) is a must‑have for every serious home cook and Julia Child fan. Register now to enter the discussion and learn more about how Julia Child continues to influence food today! \nAbout the Author:  \nPaula J. Johnson is a curator and public historian at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History in Washington\, DC. She conducts research and collects objects relating to the history and culture of American food and serves as the Director of the Smithsonian’s Food History Project. Johnson was one of the curators who collected Julia Child’s home kitchen in 2001 and led the team that created FOOD: Transforming the American Table\, a multi-layered exhibition that explores the major changes in food production\, distribution\, and consumption in the United States since the 1950s. She has shaped and contributed to many public programs on food history and leads the annual “Food History Weekend.” Johnson is the author of many articles and three books\, including Julia Child’s Kitchen: The Design\, Tools Stories\, and Legacy of an Iconic Space (2024). She received the Smithsonian Distinguished Scholar in the Humanities Award in 2020. \nJohnson began her museum career at the Calvert Marine Museum in Solomons\, Maryland\, and has worked at the Smithsonian since 1991. She is a member of the Association for the Study of Food and Society and Les Dames d’ Escoffier. She serves on the editorial collective for Gastronomica: The Journal for Food Studies.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: The Power of Connection: Creating Lasting Friendships in an Increasingly Lonely World with Dr. Marisa Franco
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Marisa Franco: Psychologist\, Professor\, and New York Times Bestselling Author\n  \nREGISTER HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/178284/register \n  \nJoin us in virtual conversation with bestselling author Dr. Marisa Franco\, one of the world’s leading experts in human connection. Her book\, Platonic: How the Science of Attachment Can Help You Make–And Keep–Friends\, explores the science of different attachment styles and how they impact our relationships–often in ways we don’t realize! \nHow do we make and keep friends in an era of distraction\, burnout\, and chaos\, especially in a society that often prizes romantic love at the expense of other relationships? In Platonic\, Dr. Marisa G. Franco unpacks the latest\, often counterintuitive findings about the bonds between us—for example\, why your friends aren’t texting you back (it’s not because they hate you!)\, and the myth of “friendships happening organically” (making friends\, like cultivating any relationship\, requires effort!). As Dr. Franco explains\, to make and keep friends you must understand your attachment style—secure\, anxious\, or avoidant: it is the key to unlocking what’s working (and what’s failing) in your friendships. \nMaking new friends\, and deepening longstanding relationships\, is possible at any age—in fact\, it’s essential. The good news: there are specific\, research-based ways to improve the number and quality of your connections using the insights of attachment theory and the latest scientific research on friendship. Platonic provides a clear and actionable blueprint for forging strong\, lasting connections with others—and for becoming our happiest\, most fulfilled selves in the process. \nRegister today to learn more about how to harness the science of human connection to create cultures of belonging. \nAbout the Author: \nAn enlightening psychologist\, New York Times bestselling author\, and TED speaker\, Dr. Marisa G. Franco is known for digesting and communicating science in ways that resonate deeply enough with people to change their lives. \nDr. Franco works as a professor at The University of Maryland and authored Platonic: How The Science of Attachment Can Help You Make – and Keep – Friends. She writes about friendship for Psychology Today and has been a featured connection expert for major publications like The New York Times\, The Telegraph\, and Vice. \nDr. Franco speaks on belonging at corporations\, government agencies\, non-profits\, and universities across the country\, including Harper Collins Publishers\, Cisco\, American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and The Department of State. \n  \nIf you miss this virtual author talk (or any other)\, recordings are available at https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Migrant Heart: The Hidden Cost of the American Dream and Healing Through Storytelling with Reyna Grande
DESCRIPTION:Award-Winning and Bestselling Author of The Distance Between Us and A Dream Called Home\n  \nREGISTER HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/177637/register \n  \n\n\nPlease join us online for a discussion with author Reyna Grande. In her ambitious new memoir\, Migrant Heart: Essays About Things I Can’t Forget\, beloved bestselling author Reyna illuminates the hidden cost of the American Dream and the complex journey of healing that follows survival. \nWhat is the true power of stories? Can they heal the jagged edges of a traumatic childhood? Is the cost of telling the story worth the price of the cure? \nWith her signature blend of sophistication and raw honesty\, Grande interrogates how living between two nations\, two languages\, and two identities has shaped the woman\, mother\, and writer she has become. Moving from the legacy of violence in her hometown of Iguala\, Mexico\, to a bittersweet family vacation in Europe spent reconciling her own impoverished past with her children’s world of abundance\, she uncovers startling truths about the nature of survival. \nWhether being racially profiled in the Arizona borderlands or finding unexpected wisdom from the slugs in her garden\, Grande unflinchingly asks: How do we bridge the gap between who we were and who we have become? How do we turn pain into power? When memory threatens to define us\, how can we use story to heal while still honoring our boundaries? \nRegister today for this virtual talk if you identify as a seeker\, a dreamer\, or “anyone who believes in the enduring\, transformative power of finding one’s voice.” \nAbout the Author: \nReyna Grande is an award-winning author\, motivational speaker\, and writing teacher. As a young girl\, she crossed the US–Mexico border to join her family in Los Angeles\, a harrowing journey chronicled in The Distance Between Us\, a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist. Her other books include the novels A Ballad of Love and Glory\, Across a Hundred Mountains\, and Dancing with Butterflies\, the memoirs Migrant Heart\, The Distance Between Us: Young Readers Edition\, and A Dream Called Home\, and the anthology Somewhere We Are Human: Authentic Voices on Migration\, Survival\, and New Beginnings.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Nurturing Future Generations: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood with Ted Page
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/162547/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nJoin us on June 18th at 2 PM in virtual conversation with storyteller and popular blogger Ted Page as we chat about his book Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood. This heartfelt book highlights his journey to bring together the stories and wisdom of grandfathers from all walks of life—all with a mission to nurture the next great generation. \nWhen author Ted Page found out he was going to be a grandpa\, he did a web search to learn more about the experience in store for him\, but all he could find were references to the movie Bad Grandpa. He couldn’t help but wonder\, “Where are the good ones?” Page started a blog\, GoodGrandpa.com\, and set out to talk with grandfathers across a diverse spectrum. This included an NFL pro athlete\, a priest\, a rabbi\, an imam\, newsman Tom Brokaw\, comedy legend John Cleese\, Chinese and Indians\, physicians adapting to disability\, an air force general\, a Vietnam combat vet\, and many more—plus his Aunt Lois and the Dalai Lama\, because why not? \nAlong the way\, Page delved into family histories—his own and those of the grandpas he interviewed—to reveal fascinating stories and lessons for living a good life. In every conversation he asked grandpas for their number one most important piece of wisdom—one thing that could help our grandchildren grow to become the greatest generation of all time. Would the collective wisdom Page gathered turn out to be one singular idea\, or a constellation of north stars that illuminate a path toward a better future? A unified and unforgettable picture does in fact emerge. \nGood Grandpa is inspiring\, uplifting\, evocative\, and filled with genuine emotion. It is a recipe of hope for a divided America\, and the book that will be on every grandparent’s reading list. \nRegister today and find out why Ted Page says “our greatest generation is to come.” \nAbout the Author: \nTed Page is a storyteller and performer. He is the author of Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood (Regalo Press) featured on NBC’s The TODAY Show\, NPR and in Forbes Magazine. His nonfiction stories have appeared in Boston Magazine and the Boston Globe Magazine\, and his comedy screen credits include work with John Cleese and Florence Henderson. His blog for grandfathers—GoodGrandpa.com—has been featured in The New York Times. Ted’s book of true family stories\, The Willoughby Chronicles\, was published in 2017. He lives in New England and has a bunch of grandchildren.

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Apocalyptic Mayhem\, Lava-Spitting Llamas\, and One Very Sassy Cat: Surviving the Universe’s Most Twisted RPG with Matt Dinniman
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/161929/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nHold onto your heart-patterned boxers! On June 11th at 7 PM Matt Dinniman\, New York Times bestselling author of the wildly popular (and just plain wild) Dungeon Crawler Carl series\, joins us online to chat about his latest book\, A Parade of Horribles. \nAs chaos and mass panic spread outside the dungeon in the wake of Faction Wars\, Carl and Donut find themselves on the tenth floor\, where they’re forced to compete in a surprisingly normal set of tasks. Well\, normal for the dungeon. \nRaces. Get from point A to point B\, and don’t come in last. After each race\, they pick an upgrade for their vehicle and the track gets more challenging. It all seems a little too normal\, a little too simple. \nIgnore those strange glitches that are occurring with increasing frequency. Don’t listen to those whispers about what’s happening on the mysterious eleventh floor\, something the system AI calls A Parade of Horribles. Nobody\, not even the showrunners\, knows what that means. Just that the AI has ominously dubbed it “a coming-out party for the ages.” \nEverything is fine\, Crawler. I repeat\, everything is fine. \nCarl hates that it’s business as usual. The rules of this floor have taken away his agency. That just will not do. \nSo Carl is planning a party of his own. It’s a plan so dangerous\, so insane\, he can’t even consult his friends lest the AI put a stop to it. Because if it goes wrong\, it’s not just the end of Carl and Donut. No. The stakes are higher than they’ve ever been. \nRegister now for a fun-filled discussion you won’t want to miss! \nAbout the Author: \nMatt Dinniman is a writer and artist from Gig Harbor\, Washington. He is the author of the New York Times bestselling Dungeon Crawler Carl series along with several other books about the end of the world. \nHe doesn’t really hate Cocker Spaniels\, and he plays bass in one band.

His presentation is richly illustrated with archival photos of storm damage and the unprecedented recovery operation\, making the storm and its aftermath come alive.
