Joanne Greenberg: An Evening with A Master Story Teller
Many of us first met Joanne Greenberg in high school when we read I Never Promised You a Rose Garden. Some of us read it more than once! Joanne will delight an intimate audience of 50 adults with stories intended for a mature crowd. These aren’t stories intended for young ears….This is a remarkable opportunity!
