A TRIO OF TALKS AT CBPL  
  
The Coos Bay Public Library will be welcoming a trio of authors over the next month, and we want you to join us!  
  
Our first book talk will be given on April 25 from 1:30-2:30 p.m. by author Rebecca J. Dobkins author of The Art of Ceremony: Voices of Renewal from Indigenous Oregon. This book provides a contemporary and historical overview of the nine federally recognized tribes in Oregon through conversations with tribal representatives. Rebecca Dobkins is a curator of Native American art at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art at Willamette University in Salem, Oregon, where she taught cultural anthropology and museum studies from 1996 until her retirement from teaching in 2023. At the Hallie Ford Museum of Art, Dobkins has curated dozens of exhibitions and authored multiple publications. She continues to work with Indigenous artists and communities across Oregon and the Northwest, including the Crow’s Shadow Institute of the Arts at the Umatilla Reservation in eastern Oregon and The Museum at Warm Springs.   
  
Then on May 6, author S.K. DeMarinis will be joining us from 12-1 p.m. to discuss her newest book, Hidden in Haarlem. Her latest work weaves the true stories from an interview with an elder who survived WW II in  
Holland as a teenager. Many stories tell of war heroes and the persecuted, but this novel aims to bring to light stories of the regular folks who tried their best to bring a horrific war to a close.  S.K. DeMarinis retired after 30 years as a chiropractor and took up writing novels to broaden her passion for storytelling. She presents a 1-hour slide show of her research of old newspapers, vintage photos, documents of other survivors, and digital encyclopedia references.  
  
Finally, Kimberly Jensen, author of Oregon’s Others will be joining us on May 9 from 1:30-2:30 PM. Her book examines the quest that took place in the era of WWI and its aftermath to identify, restrict, and punish internal enemy “others” across the country and specifically how it affected the people in Oregon.   
Kimberly Jensen received a Ph.D. in United States and Women’s History from the University of Iowa and is Professor of History and Gender Studies at Western Oregon University in Monmouth. She is the author of Mobilizing Minerva: American Women in the First World War (University of Illinois Press, 2008), Oregon’s Doctor to the World: Esther Pohl Lovejoy and a Life in Activism (University of Washington Press, 2012), and Oregon’s Others: Gender, Civil Liberties, and the Surveillance State in the Early Twentieth Century (University of Washington Press, 2024). She serves on the executive and editorial Boards of the Oregon Encyclopedia project https://www.oregonencyclopedia.org/ Featured News by City of Coos Bay
