Terri Thal, author of My Greenwich Village, has two passions: folk music and social justice.

In a wry, often funny voice, she shares stories in her new book of growing up in Brooklyn and as a spokesperson and storyteller for the folk music scene of the 1960s. She became very much part of the 1960s folk music world in Greenwich Village and New York, managing Bob Dylan, Dave Van Ronk―once her husband ―the Roche sisters, and others. She tells us what it was like to hang out in the Village coffee houses, to host folk singers like Tom Paxton and Phil Ochs who hung out at her apartment, and to be a manager. We hear her view of the 1960s socialist organizations, and how she later merged her professional work in not-for-profit agencies.

Come out for a not-to-be-missed opportunity to hear Terri share her stories about Bob, about Dave, and about the early folk scene that left an indelible mark on American society and culture.
