[OPLINLIST] Great speaker for adult programs

[Canaan Faulkner]

Library event coordinators,

Here's an unsolicited endorsement for a great speaker. See  below for a bio and book list for author/historian David Meyers.

David has presented at the Grandview Heights Public Library (Columbus, OH) many times. His talks are always fun & engaging, the stories are great, and he uses a Powerpoint presentation.

Most of his books focus on the Central Ohio area (where he lives), but he is willing to travel and will work with budgets. He has presented at libraries, local organizations, and events around Ohio.

David was here talking about his latest book last night, and I asked if I could share his information with you. He was delighted.
