Here’s your chance to meet U.S. Senator Cory Booker–the first African American elected to represent New Jersey in the U.S. Senate and only the 21st person in American history to ascend directly from mayor to senator. Booker was elected mayor of Newark, New Jersey in 2006, and for more than seven years was the public face of an American city that had gone decades with too little positive national attention and investment.
Known as a passionate new voice in American politics, U.S. Senator Cory Booker will visit to discuss his book, United: Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good. In United, Mr. Booker discusses the issues that he cares about most deeply, including race, equality and economic justice, and makes the case that compassion and solidarity must guide our nation toward a brighter future.
The event takes place Tuesday, March 22, 2016 • 7:00 – 8:30pm

She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
