Maple Leaf author Paula Becker is bringing her conversation about the Seattle World’s Fair a little closer to her home tonight with a talk at 7 p.m. at nearby Ravenna Third Place Books, 6504 20th Ave. N.E.
Becker and Alan J. Stein, who co-wrote the book “The Future Remembered: The 1962 Seattle World’s Fair and Its Legacy,” will give a talk on Seattle history accompanied by a slide show, but they’re also hoping to hear a bit about the city’s history from you.
Participants are urged to bring their own stories to the event to share with the audience. As Becker said in our earlier interview with her:
“So many people who come have stories from the fair,” Becker said. “We really love it when people stand up at these events and talk about what they did.”
