We are excited to announce the speaker of our Spring Fling fundraiser will be the accomplished writer Phillip Margolin. Phillip grew up in New York City and published his first book The Girl in the Yellow Bikini in 1974 which was later nominated for an Edgar Award for best original paperback mystery. Since then he has written over 19 books and short stories including The Last Innocent Man, which was made into a HBO movie. Phillip is currently the president of “Chess for Success” a non-profit charity that uses chess to teach elementary and middle school children study skills. He is also on the Board of Literary Arts, which sponsors the Oregon Book Awards, The Writers in the Schools program and Portland Arts and Lectures. Buy your tickets now to hear him speak at Spring Fling 2012.
