Nancy Pearl
http://www.nancypearl.com/ Having worked as a librarian and
bookseller in Detroit, Tulsa, and Seattle, Pearl’s knowledge of and love for
books is unmatched. In 1998, she developed the program “If All of Seattle Read
the Same Book,” which spread across the country. The New York Times calls her
“the talk of librarian circles.” Readers can’t get enough of her
recommendations while bookstores and libraries offer standing room only
whenever she visits.
