Ted Reinstein, Reporter and Author, coming to Seekonk Library

Posted

Seekonk, MA – Seekonk Public Library is pleased to announce we will be hosting Chronicle reporter and author Ted Reinstein to share stories close to home from his book New England Notebook. This special event will be held in the Large Meeting Room of Seekonk Public Library on Thursday, March 15 at 6:30 PM. Pre-registration is required and is open now to all. Register in the library’s Event Calendar at www.seekonkpl.org.
About the title New England Notebook, Ted shares that after covering every corner of New England for 16 years, he got tired of saying, “I have enough stories to fill a book,” so he picked the best stories and wrote one. The result is an engaging almanac that offers plenty of intriguing tidbits and little-known facts, but goes beyond the merely curious to reveal the heart of what Reinstein calls, “this historic and quintessentially American place.” Looking to buy some medieval armor? In the mood for an orchestra of typewriters? Know where to find America’s oldest baseball diamond? They’re all in New England — and all in New England Notebook. In this book you’ll discover the essence of the region’s unique character, these are the stories not found in guidebooks: the diverse people,
memorable places, fascinating history, odd pastimes and delicious foods, quirky collectors, skillful craftsmen, and one-of-a-kind entertainers that distinguish New England from every other place on earth.
Ted Reinstein has been a reporter for “Chronicle,” WCVB-TV/Boston’s award-winning—and America’s longest-running, locally-produced—nightly news magazine since 1997. In addition, he is a regular contributor for the station’s political roundtable show and writes a weekly opinion column. A native of Winthrop, MA, Reinstein received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Brandeis University. He lives just west of Boston with his wife and two daughters.
