Book Signing at Union Catholic High School – A Success

On Sunday, April 28, 2013 a book-signing was held at Union Catholic High School.  The school, which celebrated its 50th Anniversary Weekend, was gracious enough to invite Michael Rosenbloom, author of “When Stars Were in Reach” to participate in the celebration and sign books.  Below are two pictures from the book-signing, the photo at left with Sister Percylee Hart, Principal of Union Catholic (notice she is holding “When Stars Were in Reach”) and author Michael Rosenbloom.  The photo on the right is at “the scene of the crime,” the very same gymnasium where The Who played on November 29, 1967.  Keith Moon was situated under the same basketball hoop near where Michael Rosenbloom, Robert Wyrough, Nancy Scalera Mackow and Angelo Del Monte are standing.  Robert, Nancy and Angelo were contributors of memories and memorabilia for the book and were attendees at the concert when we all were a bit younger.  The author was thrilled to meet Robert, Nancy and Angelo in person for the first time and to cement friendships that had begun on the telephone and on e-mail.  Nancy and Angelo came from out of town to attend the celebrations and book-signing.
