The Friends of the Saint Paul Public Library presents the annual McDermott Lecture, featuring Dr. Anne Margaret Daniel. Dr. Daniel teaches at the New School University in New York City and has degrees in American history and English literature, and has published widely on F. Scott Fitzgerald and the work of Bob Dylan. The McDermott Lecture is named for Richard P. McDermott, who helped restore Fitzgerald?s birthplace in the 1970s and remained an avid supporter of Fitzgerald activities before passing away in 2012. This program is made possible in part by the State of Minnesota through an appropriation to the Minnesota Department of Education, funding The Friends as the Library of Congress-designated Minnesota Center for the Book.
