A Bradbury Birthday Reminiscence

451 Leiva Poster SMALLEnjoy a birthday cake for Ray Bradbury, a screening of François Truffaut’s Fahrenheit 451, and talk by Steven Paul Leiva, author of Searching For Ray Bradbury, at the Glendale Central Library on August 22. Had he lived, that would have been Ray’s 93rd birthday.

After the movie, Leiva will discuss Bradbury’s life and work. He’ll also sign. Leiva, whose book contains a series of essays about the late Bradbury, led a successful effort to name the major downtown Los Angeles intersection of Fifth and Flower Ray Bradbury Square.

The event begins at 7:00 pm.

The library is currently displaying a case of Bradbury memorabilia. John King Tarpinian did a walkaround so you can see the exhibit from all four sides.
