Author Talk: ‘The Naked Shoe,’ Jane Julianelli, Sat 1/15/11 1-2:30pm

Author Talk: ‘The Naked Shoe,’ Jane Julianelli, Sat 1/15/11 1-2:30pm

Join us for a talk with author Jane Julianelli Sat 1/15/11.  She will be discussing her book, ‘The Naked Shoe,’  from 1-2:30 pm.

 

This book is far more than just a photography catalog, in the sense that it will depict, both in pictures and biographical text, the life and work of Mabel Julianelli, starting as a pattern designer in Brooklyn, NY. Beginning with her student years studying commercial art at Pratt Institute in the 1920s, and spanning her 40-plus year career, Mabel Julianelli, with her husband and partner Charles Julianelli, is credited with many constructional, interpretative, and fashion firsts. Her 1950 Coty Award-winning naked evening sandal, which had versions into the 1960s and 1970, is vital today due to the resurgence of ballroom dancing (i.e. ‘Dancing With The Stars’): a style Mabel Julianelli first designed at a time when nobody wore sandals as evening wear.

Author Talk – Lewis Gross “Montauk Tango” Dec 4

October 27, 2010

Local author Lewis Gross will be here discussing his new book “Montauk Tango,”

The real-life story of a family’s journey to restaurant ownership, from the purchase of the property to its renovation and eventual opening in a seaside summer retreat. Author Lewis Gross believes 668 the Gig Shack, a Bohemian bistro, will be an immediate hit. But opening weekend is a disaster. Unfortunately, some of the locals don’t want to see their fish turned into tacos or fishnets worn as stockings. Novices in business, they encounter many setbacks and a conspiracy by some of the locals to put them out of business. Recounts with a touch of humor the stresses of opening a family restaurant business, weekend fatherhood, and an attempt to teach tango dancing to the local surfers and fishermen.

Event starts at 1 pm-2:30 pm.  There will be a book signing to follow.
