The Louisville Free Public Library’s fall author series is coming to an end for the year. To close it, the Library is offering two events: one, a presentation by a neurologist; the other, a conversation between Mayor Greg Fischer and a former U.S. ambassador.
Both events are free, but click the links below (or call 502-574-1644) to secure your seat. After each event, the respective authors will sign their books.
Here’s what’s on tap:
