Joanna M. Leone, CT author of "Slices of Life Italian-American Stories"

I am looking forward to my next presentation and Slice of Life Italian-American Stories  story telling hour at the Stamford Senior Center on July 11th at 4:15pm during their Open House event. My book, Slices of Life Italian-American Stories contains memoirs about Italian-Americans from Stamford, CT and from throughout the northeast. I will meet and greet the public and I am also looking forward to my presentation and discussion. The stories that people shared with me are about traditions, celebrations, travel, romance, struggles and family devotion. I look forward to hearing about your special memories.  Thanks to the vivacious Executive Director of the Stamford Senior Center, Ana Nelson. See you all there.  I love teaming up with great people in Connecticut.
