Like
Robert Klein (June 9th), Dan Wolfe is from the
Bronx, but his tale is a darker one. Three years after high school, he was sent
to Korea, where he fought courageously, won a Bronze Star, and grew up fast. Members
of the HVWC Memoir Writing class,
taught by Joan Potter of Mount Kisco, celebrate the publication of their
classmate’s newly published book, Cold Ground’s Been My Bed: A Korean War Memoir
(a title taken from a blues song sung by his first bunker buddy on the front line).
Besides Wolfe, now of Bronxville, readers are Laura Carraro and Linda
Knapp of Sleepy Hollow, Pat Ryan (Irvington), and Julia Mallach
(Somers).
All readings include a question & answer period and a reception with books by the author(s) for sale.
Admission
free

Taft Foundation; the Orchard Foundation; and the Thendara Foundation; with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a State Agency; and by Westchester Arts Council with funds from Westchester County Government, corporations and individuals.
