Our April virtual author talks start next Wednesday with New York Times big time bestseller, Jodi Picoult, who will talk about her newest novel, "By Any Other Name."
On the 8th, Smithsonian Horticulturalist, Matthew Fleming, guides us through the secret world of trees.
Then, on the 24th, bestselling author Gregg Hurwitz will chat with us about his Orphan X series and his life as a writer of suspenseful storytelling.
You can watch these talks from anywhere. No logins required, but if you sign up for upcoming talks you can even submit your questions to the authors, which is cool! Just use our microsite to explore all the past and upcoming talks: https://libraryc.org/albanypubliclibrary
We'll also be featuring some in-branch screenings of past author talks, including those from Nate Klemp (4/18), Tiffany Aliche (4/23), and Joy Harjo (4/25).
