There's no disputing the fact that Rita
Mae Brown has lived a dynamic life full
of incredible experiences - she's been a
literary icon, groundbreaking feminist, Hollywood darling,
and now a working farmer tending thousands of acres in
rural Virginia. But throughout it all, one thing she has
always been is a passionate lover of animals - from the cat
that purred her to sleep in her cradle to the foxhounds
and horses that fill her barn, an animal companion has
always been by her side. She will share some of the many
experiences that she had with animals as she discusses
her new memoir Animal Magnetism: My Life With
Creatures Great And Small. The event will include a book
signing and books will be on sale at the event.
