Friends of Moffat Library proudly present their
 Annual Meet the Authors’ Luncheon
Sunday, March 26th, 2023
12 noon - 4 pm @ F.E.A.S.T. at Round Hill, Washingtonville, NY

Enjoy a gourmet lunch with authors Addison Armstrong & Julia Dahl, who will talk about their work and the art of writing!  

Addison Armstrong is the author of 2 books of historical fiction. Her first novel, The Light Of Luna Park, sheds a window into the life of a 1920s-era nurse who tries to find help for struggling premature babies via an incubator exhibit at Luna Park, Coney Island. Her follow-up, The War Librarian, is about the sacrifice and courage necessary to live a life of honor, inspired by the first female volunteer librarians during WWI & the first women accepted into the U.S. Naval Academy. 

Jullia Dahl has been a freelance reporter for the NY Post, the deputy managing editor of The Crime Report, and a crime and justice reporter for CBSNews.com. Her feature articles have appeared in The Guardian, the Columbia Journalism Review, Business Insider, & the Boston Globe Sunday Magazine, among others. She has written 4 novels. Her first 3, Invisible City, Run You Down & Conviction, are a series about a NYC tabloid reporter investigating the murder of an Hasidic woman from Borough Park. Her 4th novel, The Missing Hours, is a story about obsession, privilege, and the consequences of a single violent act. 

This is sure to be an enlightening and interesting afternoon! Books will be available for sale & signing at the event. Tickets are $40 per person and are available at the Moffat Library now! Call for info (845-496-5483)
