Come join our first brown bag lunch event with local author and expert on the performing arts, Sharon Skeel. Ms. Skeel is the author of Catherine Littlefield: A Life in Dance and is currently writing a book about Zelda Fitzgerald, wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Catherine Littlefield was an American ballet dancer and choreographer born in Philadelphia in 1905. She founded the Philadelphia Ballet Company in 1935.

Ms. Skeel will primarily be speaking about the years that the Fitzgeralds lived locally, in Edgemoor, from 1927-1929.

Ms. Skeel’s book will be available for purchasing and signing on at the event.

While optional, Ms. Skeel suggests reading the only story or “sketch” F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote while living in Wilmington, “Outside the Cabinet-Maker’s”. It can be found via THIS LINK at no cost.
