JERRY JAFFE NEXT FEATURED AUTHOR

Our next featured author in the Chicago Jewish Authors Literary Series is Skokie resident Jerry Jaffe, who will be appearing at Max and Benny's on Monday evening, April 15, at 7:00 pm. Jerry's eighty-four years on earth (so far!) have been fueled by insatiable curiosity and a commitment to pursuing his dreams. A journalist, artist, military veteran, scriptwriter, and world traveler who possesses three master's degrees and speaks five languages, Jerry returned to his first love, writing, after teaching college for 30 years. His first novel, One More Time, Jennie Darling, was published by i.Universe in September 2012 after having been earmarked for publication by Doubleday many years ago, only to be turned down at the very last minute. Jerry's personal story is truly one of patience, and of triumph over adversity. If you plan on attending, please email richardreeder34@gmail.com or call 847-542-4624.
