MANITOWOC – The Manitowoc Public Library will bring a New York Times bestselling author and Wisconsin Public Radio contributor for an evening of storytelling this month.
“An Evening with Michael Perry” is slated for 6-8 p.m. June 19 at the UW-Green Bay, Manitowoc Campus, theater, 705 Viebahn St. Admission is free.
Perry is a farm boy turned humorist, bestselling author, volunteer firefighter/first responder, corporate speaker and amateur snowplow driver from rural Wisconsin. He is known for leaving audiences laughing (and nodding and sometimes getting misty) from his “reflective roughneck” takes on life in rural America, a news release said.
