I was one  of about 50 people attending Charles Kiernan's 'Mark Twain' presentation at the Whitehall Library.  It was as professional a presentation as Hal Holbrook!  In the white suit, he regaled us with a lifetime of adventures and misadventures.  I was impressed.

 

If he does it again, you really must attend!  Thanks for a great evening!
