IWV Campus

Author Book Signing

April 29, 2008

The Cerro Coso Community College Bookstore will be hosting a special appearance by author, Jennifer Claire on Thursday, May 15, 2008 from 2 to 4 p.m.   Refreshments will be served.  Jennifer is the great niece of one of the famous Untouchables who brought down Al Capone, and she grew up in Ridgecrest in a family comprised of secrets. 
 
In her first book Secrets of a Nigh Nigh Jennifer shares personal and family secrets with the intent of showing that everyone has a divine purpose, regardless of the family they are born into.  Jennifer is a graduate of Cerro Coso Community College and will be Cerro Coso’s Distinguished Alumni Speaker at this year’s commencement ceremonies on Friday, May 16, 2008.
 
“Everyone has a story.  Our stories involve our families and friends, our trials and joys.  I believe it is important to inspire others, and in that encouragement and mentorship, we give what we have been richly given.”  The purpose behind her book is not to hurt or harm anyone, but to encourage others through her life experiences.    “My hope is that my story and all who are parts of it will somehow, someway, inspire especially, under-privileged and single parents to return to school and get educated.  I will give back what I have so richly been given: My Purpose!”  states Jennifer.
 
The community is encouraged to attend.  Jennifer’s books are available now at the College Bookstore for $14.95 plus tax.  Proceeds beyond costs will start an educational scholarship at the college.  
 
For further information, please contact the college bookstore at 760-384-6352.
