Scope and content
Northwest Authors' Tea. Shirley Chamberlain, Tacoma Public Library director Howard M. Rowe, Mrs. Aletta Jones of Mercer Island and Mrs. Helene Glidden of Portland (l-r) in conversation at the third annual Northwest Authors' tea. It was held at the Bonneville Hotel on November 11, 1951, to mark National Book Week. The tea was co-sponsored, as in the past, by the American Association of University Women, Tacoma branch. The tea was deliberately low-key; there was no reception line or formal program. It was simply a chance for readers to meet local writers in an informal setting.
