Gone with the Wind Answer Lady

Do you love Gone with the Wind? Whether you're a fan of the book or the movie (or both!), you'll really enjoy The Gone with the Wind Answer Lady. She'll be here on Thursday, August 7th at 7:00.

Kathleen Marcaccio’s Gone with the Wind presentation provides background on author Margaret Mitchell and her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, Gone With The Wind; the 1939 film by the same name; Margaret Mitchell’s post-GWTW life; and Gone With The Wind in popular culture. Her presentation and Q&A will appeal to fans of the book, fans of the movie, and Civil War history buffs. Her program includes an impressive display of vintage and contemporary GWTW memorabilia.

Sign up to see the GWTW Answer Lady here.
