Author Talk: Cami Ann Green-The Yellow Star That Wasn't: Scandinavia, Miami, and Me. Wartime Jews in Scandinavia; From Helsinki to a Miami Beach Obsession. 

This is a past event.

Monday, December 6, 2021 at 7:00pm to 8:00pm

Virtual Event

The book, written by Cami Ann Green, takes the reader from the author's childhood as a Swedish Protestant girl in war-torn Finland to Miami, where, through an unusual set of circumstances she found herself obsessed with what happened to the Jews in Scandinavia during WWII. Not the usual book reading, Cami will talk about the process of writing this combination of memoir and history, much of it evolved from the interest expressed by listeners at her ongoing speaking engagements.
