Welcome Nora Titone
I am delighted to see Nora Titone has registered on this forum. We are just stacking up reputable authors one after another!

Nora is the author of "My Thoughts Be Bloody," a wonderul family biography of the Booths with emphasis on the relationship between Edwin and Johnny. I could not put it down once I started reading it - and I must admit that it takes a lot to impress me lately with so many books coming on the market.

I am going to tell a tale out of school right now (and I hope she won't clobber me), but we had Nora as a speaker at the Surratt conference two years ago. She is young, petite, and vivacious. My first instinct upon meeting her the day before she was to speak was, "Oh, my lord, some of my seasoned veterans are going to eat her alive!"

I definitely did not need to worry. For one hour, she had some of the crustiest ones hanging on every word. She spoke without notes in a warm, yet educational manner; answered any question thrown at her; was not the least bit confrontational, as some speakers get when asked tough questions; etc.

And no, she didn't pay me to say this!
