AN EVENING WITH PAUL STEKLER & MICHAEL FINE
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 17
==========================
Thank you, Paul Stekler and Michael Fine, for such a thought-provoking evening.
​The power of storytelling - whether literary or cinematic - and the enduring ties that make Glen Rock unique are certainly something to celebrate!

An Evening of Short Films and Short Stories
​
Lifelong friends — filmmaker/professor and MD/author — returned to their native Glen Rock for an evening of short films and short stories. 
A mix of documentaries, story readings, and GRHS class of '70 & '71 reunion!
Whether guests were long-time fans, friends, or new to their work, this event was a memorable experience for all. 
=================================================
Thank you Amanda Carroll, Frank and Lucy Rovella, Stacey Gilmartin, Kate Brangaccio, Jon Cole, Ed Hayward and Mona Milbrodt for your efforts to make this night happen.
A long-lasting friendship, despite the distance (RI and TX)
