Hemingway and Ava Gardner Exhibit coming in October
I live near enough to drop in on this exhibit when it opens in October and I'll report back on anything interesting...
Here's some info from the Ava Gardner website:
In Smithfield in October, there will be an unveiling of a rare souvenir of the bond between two of the most famous people of the 20th century--Ernest Hemingway, the doctor’s son who became a Pulitizer and Nobel Prize-winning author; and Ava Gardner, the farmer’s daughter who became an award-winning international film star.
Thanks to Ashley B. "Brownie" Futrell Jr., president and publisher of the Washington Daily News in Washington, N.C., the pocket watch that Gardner gave Hemingway for his 55th birthday in 1954 will go on display in Smithfield’s Ava Gardner Museum on October 9.
And a link...
