Dearborn Public Library Zoom Oscar Talks with Bruce Davis & Michael Schulman
by Lodge, Daniel 13 Feb '23

13 Feb '23

Everyone - As part of our Oscar Contest, we will be talking virtually on Zoom with the following experts on all things Oscar and the Motion Picture Academy * Thursday, February 16th 6:30pm - Bruce Davis author of The Academy and the Award: The Coming of Age of Oscar and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Considering its incredibly high profile, it is shocking that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, the organization behind the Academy Awards, has yet to be deeply explored. Mr. Davis, Executive Director of the Academy for twenty years, tells a revealing and compelling story of the people, famous and infamous, who shaped a marginal organization that teetered on the brink of bankruptcy, into what became a juggernaut in the entertainment industry and a major cultural institution. * Thursday, March 2nd 6:30pm - Michael Schulman author of Oscar Wars While many other books on the Oscars act as yearbooks with encyclopedic coverage of every ceremony, Oscar Wars is narrative-driven and selective: each of the book's eleven chapters takes a deep dive into a particular year, category or conflict that represented a turning point for the Oscars, for Hollywood, or for the culture at large. Oscar Wars is deeply researched and supported with extensive interviews with Hollywood insiders, and features never-before-seen correspondence and documents from the Academy's Margaret Herrick Library. I hope you can join us! You can register for each program by visiting the Library website (www.dearbornlibrary.org<http://www.dearbornlibrary.org>) and click on the Events Calendar and Registration Link.

Programming Recommendation - Greg Bodker & Birds
by Director 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Good morning everyone, We recently hosted the "Birding and Birdwatching" program with Greg Bodker at our library and it was a huge success. Greg is responsive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the subject matter - his excitement was infectious for our audience, plus he also tailored the program specifically for our area. The program drew a large audience (our largest since a kids' program from last summer!), with a mix of children, teens, and adults. I would definitely recommend booking Greg for a library program. Best, Kelsey Rutkowski *--------------------------------------* *Library Director* *Indian River Area Library* 3546 S Straits Hwy PO Box 160 Indian River, MI 49749 (231) 238-8581 indianriverlibrary.org
