15 MVLC Libraries Host Mike Lupica & James Patterson

Bestselling author Mike Lupica will discuss his latest book, Robert B. Parker's Payback, in conversation with bestselling author James Patterson, in this Zoom webinar.

About Mike Lupica: Mike Lupica is a prominent sports journalist and the New York Times-bestselling author of more than forty works of fiction and non-fiction. A longtime friend to Robert B. Parker, he was selected by the Parker estate to continue the Sunny Randall and Jesse Stone series.

About James Patterson: James Patterson is the world’s bestselling author and most trusted storyteller. He has created many enduring fictional characters and series, including Alex Cross, the Women’s Murder Club, Michael Bennett, Maximum Ride, Middle School, and I Funny. Among his notable literary collaborations are The President Is Missing, with President Bill Clinton, and the Max Einstein series, produced in partnership with the Albert Einstein Estate. Patterson’s writing career is characterized by a single mission: to prove that there is no such thing as a person who “doesn’t like to read,” only people who haven’t found the right book. He’s given over three million books to schoolkids and the military, donated more than seventy million dollars to support education, and endowed over five thousand college scholarships for teachers. The National Book Foundation recently presented Patterson with the Literarian Award for Outstanding Service to the American Literary Community, and he is also the recipient of an Edgar Award and six Emmy Awards.

About The Series: A collection of North of Boston libraries have joined forces to host a series of virtual discussions with bestselling authors this spring and summer. This event is a partnership between the libraries of Andover, Billerica, Boxford, Dracut, Georgetown, Haverhill, Ipswich, Merrimac, Middleton, Newburyport, Salisbury, Tewksbury, Tyngsborough, West Newbury, and Wilmington.
