We honor the renowned author, Tillie Olsen who recently passed away on January 1st , 2007 in Oakland, California. She would have celebrated her 95th birthday on January 14.
We have been able to find a treasure in our archives where she is reading from her book, Yonnondio, the novel that Tillie Olsen wrote the majority of when she was nineteen years old in the thirties and finally published in 1974.
