Monday on Lake Effect: Modern Libraries, Business Banking, 'The Philosopher's Flight'

Monday on Lake Effect: 

We travel to the Bridges Public Library system to learn why library use is on the rise, even in the Digital Age.  Our innovation feature, "How Did You Do That?" introduces us to Jerry Smith, a pioneer in Wisconsin's business banking landscape who rose from a really challenging childhood in rural Wisconsin.  And we'll meet Wauwatosa native Tom Miller, and find out how his two professions - novelist and emergency room doctor - have more in common than you might think.

Guests:

  • Jill Fuller and Angela Meyers, Pewaukee Public Library
  • Jerry Smith, First Business Bank
  • Tom Miller, author, The Philosopher's Flight
