Janet Wallach at The Corner Bookstore

Member Janet Wallach has written an engrossing new book about the mysterious Hetty Green, who was reportedly worth at least 100 million dollars, more than 2 billion in today's dollars, at her death in 1916.

Janet will be speaking about the new book, The Richest Woman in America: Hetty Green in the Gilded Age tonight at The Corner Bookstore.

Andrew McCarthy readings

I have been woefully ignoring the blog lately. Lately? Well, all summer then. In any case, I promise to be back periodically with news about our member writers. First up...he's been getting a lot of buzz lately about his new book. NYSL member Andrew McCarthy has just published The Longest Way Home: One Man's Quest for the Courage to Settle Down and he'll be doing a number of readings around town.
