LIBRARY TO HOST PAULA POUNDSTONE MEET AND GREET

The Tompkins County Public Library Foundation will offer a unique opportunity for Paula Poundstone fans to meet and interact with the Emmy-award winning comedienne Thursday, March 10 from 6:30 to 7:30 PM in the Ezra Cornell Reading Room.

Poundstone's Library visit will precede her 8:00 PM performance at the Historic State Theatre, which is being presented by the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation and the Friends of the Tompkins County Public Library in partnership with Dan Smalls Presents.

An avid reader and library activist, Poundstone has served as spokesperson for the Association of Library Trustees, Advocates, Friends and Foundations (ALTAFF) of the American Library Association.

The Library meet and greet is free and open to the public. Tickets for the State Theatre performance are available by calling the Theatre box office at (800) 919-6272 or online at http://www.stateofithaca.com/. Copies of Poundstone's book and CD will be available for purchase at both events.
