Join Marty Gitlin, author of “A Celebration of Animation; The 100 Greatest Cartoon Characters in Television History” as he takes guests on a journey of cartoons from the very first one up to the present day during three presentations at the Ontario Branch of the Mansfield/Richland County Public Library.

Gitlin is a freelance writer and the author of more than 140 books on popular culture and sports. He has won many awards for his writing, including first place for General Excellence in Journalism from the Associated Press, which selected him as one of the top four feature writers in Ohio.

According to Gitlin’s website, the talks “will bring back wonderful memories of Saturday morning cartoon watching for Baby Boomers and beyond, as well as carefree times for younger fans on Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon.”

The presentations will take place on January 17, January 24, and February 19, all at 6PM.
