LISBON FALLS — Julie-Ann Baumer will give a talk on Lewiston Evening Journal writer Eloise Jordan at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, March 8, at the Lisbon Historical Society, MTM Center, 18 School Street, Lisbon Falls.

Her talk, “Six Degrees of Eloise,” will include a historical overview of Jordan’s life and writing history as well as several short, dramatic readings of her work.

“Eloise Jordan found something interesting to write about every day,” Baumer says. “In addition to her regular weekly column, she also frequently wrote lengthy feature articles for the Lewiston Evening Journal’s Saturday magazine. Her output was impressive, as was the array of local topics she tackled. I don’t know how she found time to have lunch at the DeWitt Hotel as often as it is rumored she did.”

Baumer, a Lisbon Falls native and resident, is a freelance writer, blogger and sentimental memory collector. She’s served her community with work on the Moxie Festival, the Green Thumb Gang community gardens and other local projects. She is currently serving on the Gendron Franco Center’s board of directors.

The event is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Parking and entrance are at the rear of the MTM building.
