SUMMARY:Betty White: America's Favorite Potty Mouthed Grandma
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE! This is a live and in-person presentation. The registration fee includes a lovely lunch! Registration info is below! The cost is $22 through the wonderful Niles Senior Center! \n  \nThe fabulous Betty White has been called an American national treasure – and rightly so! Up until her death at 99\, Betty White was a beacon of positivity even in difficult years! Witty\, working\, and happy\, Betty White it’s a beacon of positivity even in difficult times! \nDid you know that at a key moment in her career\, she risked her job to stand up for Civil Rights?  \nBetty White was voted one of America’s most beloved entertainers year in and year out.  In 2018\, she was chosen as the most trusted person in America! You know her as the seemingly sweet we but secretly scheming sexpot Sue Anne Nivens on the iconic  “Mary Tyler Moore Show\,” the endearing\, naïve\, and trusting Rose Nyland on the classic  “Golden Girls\,” and the outrageous and somewhat loopy Elka Ostrovsky on ” Hot in Cleveland.” \n Betty White has been a staple on talk shows\, a host and panelist on game shows\, and has even performed in some popular movies\, including one classic film drama about politics in which she played a U.S. Senator! \nYou may not know that Betty White was a pioneer in the early days of television\, being the first woman to produce her own show!  The amazing Ms. White is a best-selling author and tireless advocate for animals. Most importantly\, she is widely considered one of the nicest people in all show business. This warm\, charming\, and funny presentation is loaded with hilarious video clips and great stories about the one and only Betty White. \n

SUMMARY:Julia Child: Spy And Chef
DESCRIPTION:Julia Child: Spy And Chef\n \nIn 1963\, Julia Child became the first national superstar chef on TV! \nHer program “The French Chef” was so influential that the Smithsonian Institute features her kitchen\, intact\, as a permanent exhibit!  Julia Child changed how America thought about food\, became the first star of public broadcasting\, opened the doors for cooking on television\, and became one of the first and most essential faces of public broadcasting.  Quite a legacy for a woman who was neither French nor a chef! \n There was another long-secret side to Julia Child that she hid for many decades. \nIn 1943\, twenty years before her cooking and media skills became famous\, Julia Child served in America’s top-secret spy corps during World War II!  The fantastic Julia Child worked in the OSS\, \nJulia Child – In China\, WWII\, which was later to become the CIA.  Click here to read a bit more about this fascinating period in her extraordinary life! \nUtilizing a very high level of security clearance\, exceptional organizational skills\, and endless optimism and resourcefulness\, the former party girl from California served America as her nation.  She worked at the right hand of “Wild Bill” Donovan\, the head of America’s foreign spies!  Paul\, Julia Child\, moved from one dangerous overseas post to another with her husband\, serving our country before learning how to cook. \n  \nThe daring story of Julia Child in the OSS is only one of the delights in this unique\, funny\, and fascinating multimedia presentation!  We will look at how she changed public television\, changed the way America cooked and ate\, and had a whole lot of fun in everything she attempted! \n  \nMore Info\nThis program is offered live and in person!  \n REGISTRATION: I suggest calling the senior center directly.  Their website can be a little tricky to maneuver. \n
