09.04: First Thursday: Emily Myers

2014-08-18 20:39:23| Powells Books Events Calendar

"When Ruby Was Blue" is an experimental narrative whose story unfolds on the walls as the audience moves through the gallery. The story follows a young girl's psychological journey into the underworld. As all collages are created from a larger, whole image, Ruby learns of the power she has to create something beautiful out of a broken past. The creator, Emily Myers, combines her passions as a puppet maker, paper-cut illustrator, and storyteller to bring together this body of work, which is funded in part by the Regional Arts and Culture Council. Inspired by her childhood experience with death, Emily hopes this story will offer comfort to those who have lost a loved one.

Just two months before the September 11 terrorist attacks, Dr. Judy Melinek began her training as a New York City forensic pathologist. With her husband T. J. Mitchell and their toddler Daniel holding down the home front, Judy threw herself into the fascinating world of death investigation — performing autopsies, investigating death scenes, counseling grieving relatives. Working Stiff (Scribner) chronicles Judy's two years of training, taking readers behind the police tape of some of the most harrowing deaths in the Big Apple, including a firsthand account of the events of September 11, the subsequent anthrax bioterrorism attack, and the disastrous crash of American Airlines flight 587.
