At the Junior League of Richmond’s 65th Book & Author Dinner, six authors will speak about recently published books and experiences in the field of writing.  An autograph reception will immediately follow the dinner with books available for purchase.  Last year’s event was attended by nearly 1,000 people and raised $50,000 to support the JLR Literacy Through Art Outreach program and partnerships with the Southside Child Development Center and YMCA Bright Beginnings, among others.  The honored authors for the 2010 event are Sam Beall, Sarah Blake, Noah Boyd, Dean King, Phyllis Theroux and Abraham Verghese. Bob Deans, noted author featured at the 62nd Book & Author Dinner, will serve as Master of Ceremonies for this annual sell-out event that is the longest-running dinner of its kind in the country.

Please join us May 4, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. at the Greater Richmond Convention Center for the Junior League of Richmond's 65th Annual Book & Author Dinner.
