On January 30, four TJSL faculty members: Professors Marjorie Cohn, Marybeth Herald, Aaron Schwabach, and Bill Slomanson were honored by the San Diego Public Library at the library’s Local Authors Exhibit and reception.

 

According to the San Diego Public Library’s website, “The Local Author Program highlights the intellectual and creative accomplishments of writers and nurtures budding writers in the San Diego region. Special programs for authors are held throughout the year including book discussions, writing workshops and author talks, where writers can interact directly with their readers as they share, sell and sign their books. The 49th Annual Local Author Exhibit for books published in 2014 will run throughout the entire month of February 2015 in the Dickinson Popular Library of the New San Diego Central Library @ Joan Λ Irwin Jacobs Common. Submitted publications are also exhibited in an online exhibit that lasts throughout the year and features author information and photos, book cover images, and title and publishing information.”
