Hero and Zero
Life in Marin, posted by Editor, Pacific Sun Online, on Oct 9, 2009 at 6:59 pm

HERO: Silvia Lange of Nicasio wished to give our local librarians some props, especially Laurie Thompson at the Anne T. Kent California Room, Civic Center branch. Thompson recently encouraged and facilitated Lange's annotated bibliography of Angel Island.
