Author Talk: David Kruh - Little Mister Victory

About this event

All Adults, Older Adults. Join the Friends of the North End Branch Library in welcoming David Kruh to discuss his new book Little Mister Victory. David Kruh is a writer, historian, and playwright who is perhaps best-known for his two books on Scollay Square, the city's erstwhile entertainment district. His latest book is Little Mister Victory (www.littlemistervictory.com) the true story of a daughter's search for the woman who abandoned her father on the Boston Common on VJ Day, August 15, 1945. His other non-fiction works include one on Boston's highways and another on U.S. presidential homes and landmarks. Among David's produced and published works for the stage is a musical about the Boston Red Sox' so-called “Curse,” which enjoyed an extended run after its 2001 premiere at Boston's Equity Lyric Stage. David's columns and articles have appeared in publications including The Boston Globe, Boston Herald, History Magazine, Yankee Magazine, and Boston Magazine. This event is sponsored by the Friends of the North End Branch of the Boston Public Library through the generosity of the John D. McGonagle Foundation. Registration is not required.
