Dietrich Stroeh and ‘The Man Who Made it Rain’.  





Sherry Monahan- author of ‘Tombstone’s Treasure: Silver Mines & Golden Saloons’
Sherry Monahan is an authority on "the city that wouldn't die" and its history. In Tombstone's Treasure, she focuses on the silver mines, one reason for the city's founding, and the saloons, the other reason the city grew so quickly. Monahan shares true tales about Tombstone's mining and gambling history, offering a glimpse back to a different time and locale where wealthy businesspeople and rugged miners rubbed elbows at the bar and gambled side by side. Read more about Sherry Monahan and ‘Tombstone’s Treasure: Silver Mines & Golden Saloons’.  




Marcella Lansdowne - author of Children’s Book ‘Orion the Miracle Kitty’
‘Orion the Miracle Kitty’ is one of those books that can be enjoyed as a great story, but also used to teach your children some valuable lessons. True stories about animals on a journey that get lost or hurt tug at the heart--and when the outcome is good, children love to cheer. Orion the Miracle Kitty is a short story about a kitten that finds a new home in the Sonoran Desert, gets bitten by a snake, but recovers. Read more about Marcella Lansdowne and Orion the Miracle Kitty.

Christina Linhardt – Operatic Pop Singer, Actor, Dancer
Keeping pace with the intensely creative, jubilantly frenetic performing career of Christina Linhardt is a bit like playing pinball with a wild spirit that can assume any new role her muse inspires. Known by some as the “Diva of Secret Societies,” she’s performed everywhere from the L.A. County Museum of Art and the Atlas-Wiltern Building to the Wilshire Ebell Theatre, the Los Angeles Cathedral (as a solo angel for Cardinal Mahony), The Magic Castle and Key Club. Christina will join us to talk about her latest album ‘Voodoo Princess’ and more. Read more about Christina Linhardt.
