“Baseball Immortal: Derek Jeter” with Author Danny Peary

DerekJeter.DannyPeary“I was just struck by how much he cared about his fellow classmates.  He was completely self-motivated, creative, never wasted any time.” -Shirley Garzelloni, elementary school teacher

“Baseball Immortal: Derek Jeter” takes you on a remarkable forty-year journey, letting you step inside the great Yankee shortstop’s life and career through his own words and those of the people who have known him best personally and in the sports community. The result is an incredible, insightful look at what made him not only an amazing ballplayer, but also an intriguing and complex personality.

The book is packed with quotes by Jeter’s parents, friends, teachers and mentors, coaches, scouts, teammates, opposing players, his fans and critics, celebrities, elite athletes like Michael Jordan, writers and broadcasters, managers, George Steinbrenner and even two presidents. The big surprise comes from the revealing quotes from Derek Jeter himself, who, during his career, constantly frustrated journalists by keeping his thoughts to himself.

Join us on Wednesday, December 16 for “Baseball Immortal: Derek Jeter.” RSVP required to attend. (Please note: Derek Jeter will not be attending this event.)
