Colleagues Show Support for David Schwartz
Colleagues and friends of Milwaukee bookseller A. David Schwartz, owner of Harry W. Schwartz Bookshops in Milwaukee, have created a special way to celebrate the bookseller's 65th birthday and to show their support as Schwartz recovers from recent cancer surgery. They are collecting new books that will be donated to three local Milwaukee charities: COA Youth and Family Centers, The JCC Parenting Center and Library, and Milwaukee Women's Center.
A "perfect fit" is how John Cross, co-owner of Foul Play Mystery Bookshop in Westerville, Ohio, described the store's sponsorship of Mystery! on WOSU, the local PBS station. "People have always come in looking for the books on Mystery!" he explained.
