If you haven’t taken advantage of the great authors our St. Louis County Library brings into town, you’re not too late. Tracy Chevalier, New York Times bestselling author of Girl with a Pearl Earring, will be at library headquarters on Lindbergh Boulevard Jan. 31 to talk about her new book, At the Edge of the Orchard. The story is about a family settling the American frontier.
Kudos to Jack Bryant of the CWE, who has entered the exclusive level of bridge players who have earned 20,000 Masterpoints from the American Contract Bridge League. Only 113 of the 170,000 members have reached this level. A Life Master since 1971, Bryant, who plays at The Bridge Center in Olivette, has been named Player of the Year eight times and has placed third and fourth in national events, as well as 14th in the World Bridge Federation’s IMP Pairs in 2010.
