Women in Business - Book Lovers Month
Carbon Chamber & Economic Development presents:
Book Lovers Women in Business Luncheon
at The Palmerton Library 402 Delaware Ave.
Women is Business welcomes back Judith Umlas.
Judith is the author of Grateful Leadership and Power of Acknowledgement. We are thrilled for the launch of her new publication, Soulmates and Strangers.
Before email or Facetime, when snail mail was the only way to communicate across oceans, Judith's mother and her French pen pal created a family legacy. Their writings to one another, starting when they were teenagers and ending in their 80’s, preserve a precious time in the past, while inspiring generations of the future. This is the inspiring opening of the book that author Judith wrote, based on the packet of letters given to her by her mother’s French pen pal - letters that were written by her mother,
between the ages of 15 – 27.
Few grown women have the good fortune and the honor of getting to know their mothers
in the way Judith gets to know hers, as a young girl from the age of 15 and on. She expresses her fascination at this sparkling, undiscovered (to her) person,
as she learns of her mother’s deepest feelings, her passions and interests
-- including boxing and baseball!
During this WIB luncheon, Judith will also speak on the process of publication, and read few pages from her book.
