Ohioana Book Festival featured in Ohio Magazine

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

The 2009 Ohioana Book Festival has been featured in two fantastic new articles in Ohio Magazine.

The first, Burgeoning Bookshelves by Jennifer Rogers, from February 2009, is an in-depth overview of Ohioana’s mission.

Ohio magazine has also featured the Ohioana Book Festival in its April 2009 issue. Page Turners, also by Jennifer Rogers, features a delightful portrait of Ohioans Frank Crumit (a songwriter from Jackson), Mildred Benson (Toledo resident and writer of many of the original Nancy Drew mysteries), and 2009 Ohioana Book Festival featured author R.L. Stine (Columbus native and author of the Goosebumps series).

Thank you to Jennifer Rogers and Ohio magazine for their continuing support of Ohioana and the Ohioana Book Festival.
