Program Recommendation: Irene Miller
by Mick Howey 07 May '24

07 May '24

Hello Michlib-l, Baldwin Public Library hosted Holocaust survivor, author, speaker, and educator Irene Miller. She was engaging, powerful, thoughtful, and inspiring as she spoke about her life experiences. We had a great turnout and were honored that we were able to offer this program for our community. As many others have on Michlib-l, I highly recommend this presentation. For more information about Irene: https://www.irenemillerspeaker.com/ Best, Mick Howey, MLIS Adult Services Librarian II Baldwin Public Library 300 West Merrill Street Birmingham, MI 48009 (248) 554-4649
