AUTHOR GIGI GEORGES

Sunday, March 10 at 2 PM. Author Gigi Georges. Please join us for the next event in our 2024 Patsy Bray Mahoney Lecture Series Gigi Georges. Gigi Georges, Ph.D. turned to narrative non-fiction writing after an extensive career in politics, public service, and academia. A former White House Special Assistant to the President and U.S. Senate State Director, she has taught political science at Boston College, served as a Program Director for the Harvard Kennedy School, and been a Managing Director of The Glover Park Group—a leading national public affairs firm. Born and raised in Brooklyn, she lives with her husband and eleven-year-old daughter in New Hampshire and Downeast Maine. “Downeast” honors the lives of five remarkable young women, and through them, the paths of young women across rural America. It shines a light, too often obscured, on the indispensable role contemporary rural women play in their communities. Copies of the book will also be available for sale and signing after the event. Light refreshments will be provided by the Graves Library Snack Team.  Parking is available along Maine Street, the North Street Fire Station Parking Lot, and Consolidated School (Route 9).  If the weather is bad, please check your local television stations for updates on our listings or send us an email to: mlbgraves@gmail.com. Please enter through the white door in the Parking Lot. The Louis T. Graves Memorial Public Library is located at 18 Maine Street, Kennebunkport.
