Author/Program Recommendation--Tom Carr
by Paige Plant 05 Oct '16

05 Oct '16

Last night, Michigan-based journalist/author Tom Carr presented material from his book, "Blood on the Mitten: Infamous Michigan Murders 1830-Present," at the Livonia Civic Center Library. He gave a very interesting 45-minute presentation, followed by a lively Q&A session and book-signing. If your patrons have an interest in true crime and/or Michigan history, I highly recommend Tom as a speaker. He gave me permission to share his contact information: 231.409.6074 thomasrobertcarr(a)gmail.com If you have any questions about our Livonia event/experience, please contact me. -- Paige Plant Librarian Livonia Civic Center Library 32777 Five Mile Road Livonia MI 48154 734.466.2494 "I read everything. The library fed me." --Louise Erdrich, when asked 'What kind of reader were you as a child?'
