This edition of “A LOOK AT THE ARTS with Tom Lounges” originally aired on FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 2017

IN-STUDIO GUESTS: 

Author CATHERINE LANIGAN with CAROL MOORE of the Lake Co. Public Library Foundation Board.

CATHERINE LANIGAN — the bestselling author of nearly forty published titles in both fiction and non-fiction -- has been an in-studio guest on "A LOOK AT THE ARTS" four previous times and Lakeshore listeners love her.  Catherine will be doing a public speaking engagement at The Avalon Banquet Center at 1pm on Saturday, April  29.  She is the celebrity guest for the Lake Co. Public Library Foundation's 2017 Literary Tea.

Catherine's work includes the novelizations of “Romancing the Stone” and “The Jewel of the Nile,” both enjoyed success as  films starring Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito.   She has written over 40 books, including a series of books about angel encounters, and many romance tales for Harlequin Books.  Her latest book -- "Protecting The Single Mom" -- takes places once again in the sleepy rural setting of Indian Lake. This time readers discover that there is no safe haven from domestic violence, which serves as the back story of this novel.
