Jan. 28: Author Susan Gilbert Harvey will be at The Harris Art Center in Calhoun

The Harris Art Center in Calhoun, Georgia, presents a
BOOK SIGNING and Q and A with:
SUSAN GILBERT HARVEY
SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 2012
FROM 2 – 4 PM
 
Join author Susan Gilbert Harvey as she discusses her latest book, POSTMARKS: the summers of '98.
POSTMARKS is the prequel to Harvey's popular first book,†Tea with Sister Anna: a Paris journal, which received a 2006 Georgia Author of the Year Award.†
 
Susan Gilbert Harvey is a native of Rome, Georgia, although many of her Harbin and Shelor ancestors lived in Calhoun. †Harvey spent 30 years as a visual artist before she inherited the 1898 Paris journal of her great-aunt, Anna McNulty Lester (1862-1900). Anna's life as an art student in Montparnasse enticed Harvey to walk in her great-aunt's Paris footsteps in 1998.
 
The story of Anna and Edith Lester (Susan's grandmother) continues in POSTMARKS: the summers of '98.
Susan Harvey's books appeal to artists, writers, and travelers. She shares humorous stories of her life as a sculptor, and her 19th Century ancestors inspire readers to embark on their own creative adventures.
 
Both of Harvey's books will be available for sale. She will display memorabilia and artifacts related to the stories she tells in her books.
