During our November First Friday Art Walk, Nancy Dornan will be selling and signing copies of her new book “I Married an Immigrant”.
”Bridget, an 18-year-old Midwest farm girl elopes with 32 year old Domino Danzero, a dashing and romantic Italian immigrant. She defied her father and convention to live a fifty-year love affair. The story of Bridget and Domino is a story of adventure, travel, growth, and creativity sewn together from Bridget’s diaries, letters, transcriptions and enhanced by Domino’s extraordinary photographs. Open this book and experience a turn of the last century life of great risk and opportunity, of travel, of the Spanish Flu Pandemic, and the Great Depression, of the advent of radio and highways…. all seen through Bridget’s eyes.
How did they do it? Why did they do it? Could this be done today?”
