Event Details

Despite the Depression, the movie industry boomed and the Hollywood musical played a key role in distracting Americans from the horrors of the economic downfall. Author/speaker Susan Gibberman will talk about some of the most popular films of the era and show scenes from these films. This program will be both entertaining and historically informative. Join us in the library for this special presentation!
