finding mary smith - an afternoon with al isaacs

  • Wimborne Community Centre 41-44 King Street Wimborne, England, BH21 1EA United Kingdom (map)

American author Al Isaacs shares the remarkable true story behind his award-winning memoir Finding Mary Smith.

After discovering at age 52 that he had been adopted, Al followed a trail of DNA, family secrets and a 1960s folk-music mystery that eventually led him across the Atlantic to his birth mother, Mary—now living in Dorset.

Join Al for an afternoon of laughter, surprises, Q&A and a very special reunion, with Mary herself in attendance.
