The Photo Angel - How One Woman is Reuniting Ancestors with Their Descendants

Join us for an enlightening hour with Kate Kelley, a teacher who in her spare time scours flea markets and antique shops looking for old photos for sale. Using a variety of methods, Kate finds living descendants and relatives of the subjects of the photos and reunites them with their families. Soon to be featured on The Today Show, and previously featured on Chronicle and in the Boston Globe among other news outlets, it is a treat to welcome Kate to our library to share some of her treasures. Registration required.
