Dinner with an Author -Kate Betterton May 2, 2009

After years of living in the north, Kate answered the siren song of the South, and now lives with her family in Chapel Hill, NC-- where, it’s claimed with admirable exaggeration, “You can’t throw a tomato without hitting a writer.” Her work has been published in The Sun, The Southerner, and local publications. She is the recipient of a grant from the Barbara Deming Memorial Foundation of the Bronx, NY, was awarded an Emerging Artist Grant by the Durham, NC Arts Council, and won the 2008 Novello Literary Award for Where the Lake Becomes the River.

The Dinner with an Author series is an evening with the extraordinary minds behind today's great books. Our authors cover the range of genres and allow you to look at what has inspired their work. We provide an intimate setting where the each author both speaks to the group and mingles with the tables to answer your questions.

In order to promote Literacy and the wonderful work the Friends of the Western Carteret Public Library are doing, a 20% donation from each ticket will be given to help build their programs.
