There's no disputing the fact that Rita Mae Brown

has lived a dynamic life full of incredible experi-

ences - 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. Monday October 19, 2009
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm
She will share some of the many experiences that
she had with animals as she discusses her new AADL Downtown Library
memoir Animal Magnetism: My Life With Creatures Multi-Purpose Room
Great And Small. The event will include a book 343 South Fifth Avenue
signing and books will be on sale at the event. Ann Arbor, MI 48104
