The East Brunswick Friends of the Library are hosting a special event with author and motivational speaker Ken Kunken at East Brunswick Public Library (2 Civic Center Drive) on Thursday, May 9 at 7:30 pm. He will be discussing his memoir I Dream Of Things That Never Were – The Ken Kunken Story.

Kunken broke his neck on October 31, 1970, while making a tackle during a football game at Cornell University. The injury severed his spinal cord, leaving him almost totally paralyzed from the shoulders down.

Join the EB Friends of the Library as they host Shirley Russak Wachtel, the author of, "A Castle in Brooklyn."
