Ashley Bieber, past-chair, shares a few fun things about herself in this interview.
Tell us a little bit about who you are and your connection to libraries and the YSS Board.
I am currently the Teen Services Coordinator at the L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library and Past-Chair of the YSS Board.
If you could be any book character for a day or a week, who would you be?
There
are many, but at the moment I’m really grooving on Garfield - based on
his love of relaxation and lasagna, and disdain of Mondays and diets.
What was your favorite childhood book?
I have very vivid and formidable memories of a book at my grandmother’s house called Dinosaur
Comes to Town, by Art Seiden. The
forest animals hear a “thump, thump, thump” and assume “a meat-eating dinosaur is coming!” As
they scramble
to take cover (suspense builds when rabbit gets stuck in a hole) the
dinosaur walks right past them, into town, and over to the drive-in to
order 60 million hamburgers! And
he ate them all.
Tell us about a memorable experience at WLA.
Seeing
Steve Albini at last year's president luncheon was a pretty top-notch
life event in my book. It was a bonus to hear a librarian ask the
crucial question of just
how does he organize his 60,000 vinyl records? (alphabetically by
artist, of course!)
