Hi Library Land,

Last month, the Westland Public Library hosted Vanessa Ivy Rose, author of "Hall of Fame DNA: The Legacy of Norman "Turkey" Stearnes". Both the book and her presentation honor the life and legacy of her grandfather, Turkey Stearnes, legendary Negro Leagues Baseball Hall of Famer. Her passion and love for the sport and for her family are infectious and inspiring! I highly recommend reaching out to her for a presentation at your library. She can be reached at hofdna@gmail.com.
