Author Visit - Richard Muti
|
|
|
Wednesday, December 16 at 6:30 pm
Celebrate Frank Sinatra's 100th Birthday with a book reading and signing of 'Cent'Anni: The Sinatra Legend at 100' by former mayor of Ramsey, NJ and award-winning author Richard Muti.
The book is a fast-paced, one-volume study of the most fascinating entertainer of the 20th century. The book isn't an academic tome, although it is extensively researched and footnoted; rather, it is designed to be a highly readable page-turner, for avid Sinatraphiles as well as more casual fans of his music and films. It examines the forces, both positive and negative, that made Sinatra the legend he is today, with special attention given to the love-hate relationship he maintained toward Hoboken and New Jersey for most of his life.

MakerSpace & 3-D Printer

Cresskill Public Library will be creating a new MakerSpace, but we need your help to outfit it with the tools, equipment and materials necessary for community members to accomplish their project.
Please support our efforts by donating on the YouCaring Website and searching for Cresskill Library.
