Cocktails and Conversation ~ 11/15/18

Cocktails and Conversation ~ 11/15/18

Spend your happy hour with New York Times bestselling author Beck Dorey-Stein, author of From the Corner of the Oval, the critically-acclaimed memoir of her unlikely tenure as a stenographer in the Obama White House. Moderated by KET’s Renee Shaw. Books will be available for purchase from Joseph-Beth Booksellers. Book signing to follow presentation. Please note that alcohol will only be served to those 21 years of age and older with a valid ID.

Tickets are required and $35 plus tax, includes beer and wine.

About the From the Corner of the Oval:
In 2012, Dorey-Stein is working five part-time jobs and just scraping by when a posting on Craigslist lands her, improbably, in the Oval Office as one of Barack Obama’s stenographers. The ultimate D.C. outsider, she joins the elite team who accompany the president wherever he goes, recorder and mic in hand. On whirlwind trips across time zones, Beck forges friendships with a dynamic group of fellow travelers—young men and women who, like her, leave their real lives behind to hop aboard Air Force One in service of the president. As she learns to navigate White House protocols and more than once runs afoul of the hierarchy, Beck becomes romantically entangled with a consummate D.C. insider, and suddenly the political becomes all too personal. Against the backdrop of glamour, drama, and intrigue, this is the story of a young woman making unlikely friendships, getting her heart broken, learning what truly matters, and, in the process, discovering her voice.

About Beck Dorey-Stein:
Beck Dorey-Stein is a native of Narberth, Pennsylvania, and a graduate of Wesleyan University. Prior to her five years in the White House, she taught high school English in Hightstown, New Jersey; Washington, D.C.; and Seoul, South Korea. This is her first book.

Praise for From the Corner of the Oval:
“[This] breezy page turner is essentially Bridget Jones goes to the White House.” — The New York Times

“Who knew the West Wing could be so sexy? Beck Dorey-Stein’s unparalleled access is obvious on every page, along with her knife-sharp humor. I tore through the entire book on a four-hour flight and loved reading all about the brilliant yet hard-partying people who once surrounded the leader of the free world. Lots of books claim to give real insider glimpses, but this one actually delivers.” —Lauren Weisberger, author of The Devil Wears Prada

“Dorey-Stein . . . writes with wit and self-deprecating humor.” —
The Wall Street Journal

“Addictively readable… Dorey-Stein’s spunk and her sparkling, crackling prose had me cheering for her through each adventure… She never loses her starry-eyed optimism, her pinch-me wonderment, her Working Girl pluck.” —Paul Begala, The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice)

Thanks to Transylvania University and Mane on Main for their generous sponsorship of this event!

Being in the wedding industry, we are lucky to witness many precious mother-child moments, from the bustling of the bride’s dress to the sweet mother-son dance. We even witnessed the beautiful marriage of Martina, daughter of Dupree Catering’s Pastry Chef, Halida Cindric.
We asked Martina what Mother’s Day means to her: 
“𝘔𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳’𝘴 𝘋𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘤𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴. 𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘴  𝘢 𝘨𝘪𝘧𝘵, 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘳, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘢 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘭 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳. 𝘖𝘯 𝘔𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳’𝘴 𝘋𝘢𝘺 𝘐 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦, 𝘨𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺.”✨
