Hello Fellow Librarians, We hosted a marvelous program at the White Lake Township Library: Larry Martin’s* WWII In Their Own Words* featuring Colin McKenzie who served aboard the USS Pennsylvania at Pearl Harbor. It is a truly fascinating and humbling experience to be able to hear wartime stories told from memory. Mr. Martin is extremely knowledgeable about WWII and military history and passionate about ensuring the stories of our veterans do not fade from memory. He has spent the better part of two decades interviewing veterans and showing those interviews at libraries, allowing attendees to hear the stories of our men and women-in-arms firsthand. Our present time of virtual programming has expanded his abilities to reach modern audiences since he is no longer required to travel to the library to present these stories. He is excited to be able to use virtual environments to present this work to libraries around the country. To contact Larry Martin to host a program, his email is batt.chief@yahoo.com . You can also learn more about his work at his website, https://lmww2.com/ Thom Mackie, WHTL Librarian White Lake Township Library 11005 Elizabeth Lake Road White Lake MI 48386 248-698-4942 whitelakelibrary.org
