SUMMARY:Deeper Than the Ocean: A Conversation with Mirta Ojito
DESCRIPTION:Miami Author Series \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdmission is $20. Members attend free.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n    REGISTER \n    \n\n\n\nJoin the Museum of Miami for a fireside chat with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Mirta Ojito as she discusses her acclaimed novel Deeper Than the Ocean. A sweeping story of family\, migration\, love\, and the secrets that can reshape everything we thought we knew about where we come from. \n\n\n\nOjito’s dual narrative brings history and memory together\, exploring the ways migration\, family stories\, and buried secrets can echo across generations. During the conversation\, Ojito will share the inspiration behind Deeper Than the Ocean and discuss the history\, places\, and human stories woven throughout the novel. \n\n\n\nFollowing the conversation\, Ojito will be available for a book signing. Books & Books–Coral Gables will be on-site with copies of Deeper Than the Ocean available for purchase. \n\n\n\nMembers must sign in for free registration to take effect. \n\n\n\nThe program is presented in connection with the Museum of Miami’s exhibition Caught in the Eye: Remembering the 1926 Hurricane. \n\n\n\nBook Partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMirta Ojito is a journalist\, professor and author of two previous non-fiction books. She is the recipient of an Emmy for the documentary Harvest of Misery as well as a shared Pulitzer for national reporting in 2001\, for a series of New York Times articles on race. A refugee from Cuba\, her work often explores the complexities of identity\, belonging\, and the quiet power of resilience. She lives in Coral Gables\, Florida\, where she is endlessly inspired—and occasionally outnumbered—by her three grown sons and too many plants. Deeper than the Ocean is her first novel. \n\n\n\nHer work has appeared in several anthologies\, including Written into History: Pulitzer Prize Reporting of the Twentieth Century from The New York Times\, edited by Anthony Lewis. Ojito has taught journalism at New York University\, Columbia University\, and the University of Miami.

SUMMARY:From Rum Row to Hypocrite’s Row: A Conversation with Eliot Kleinberg
DESCRIPTION:Membership Event \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n$20 for Non-Members\, Members Free (Members must sign in to register) \n\n\n\nStep back into the daring days of the Roaring Twenties when Prohibition was the law—but in South Florida\, it was often treated as little more than a suggestion. \n\n\n\nJoin acclaimed journalist and historian Eliot Kleinberg for an engaging fireside chat at Museum of Miami as he explores the colorful world of rumrunners\, smugglers\, and lawmen who shaped Miami during Prohibition. \n\n\n\nKleinberg will discuss his upcoming novel Hypocrite’s Row\, the first installment in the Adventures of Nate Moran series. Set against the backdrop of 1920s South Florida\, the story follows Miami police detective Nate Moran as he navigates a city where wealthy elites\, gangsters\, and tourists all sought forbidden liquor—and where the smugglers supplying it often became folk heroes. \n\n\n\nThrough storytelling and conversation\, Kleinberg will share the real-life history behind the novel\, including the rum-running networks that thrived just miles off Miami’s coast and the complex relationship between crime\, law enforcement\, and high society during Prohibition in the United States. \n\n\n\nGuests will have the opportunity to purchase Hypocrite’s Row following the program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n    REGISTER \n    \n\n\n\n\nEliot KleinbergAuthor of Hypocrite’s Row\n\n\n\nFlorida native Eliot Kleinberg\, creator of the Civil War historical novel “Peace River\,” the”Adventures of Nate Moran” novels\, and the original “Weird Florida” books\, spent nearly a half-century reporting on local news and writing about Florida and Florida history. He produced two history columns and wrote fourteen books — and co-wrote or contributed to several more — all of them about Florida. Son of longtime journalist Howard Kleinberg\, he lectures regularly on Florida topics and runs a blog on better writing called “Something Went Horribly Wrong.”  www.ekfla.com \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information \n\n\n\n\n\n    \n        \n        \n                                        \n                    \n                        \n                            \n                                Helpful Tips\n                                \n                            \n                        \n                      \n\n                    \n                        \n                                                    \n                                \n                                    Program check-in will begin 15-minutes prior to the program start. 	\n                                \n                                                            \n                        \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            \n                                Wayfinding\n                                \n                            \n                        \n                      \n\n                    \n                        \n                                                    \n                                \n                                    This program will take place in the Museum’s South Building theater.	\n                                \n                                                                    Getting to Museum of Miami\n                                                            \n                        \n                    \n                \n                            \n                    \n                        \n                            \n                                Parking\n                                \n                            \n                        \n                      \n\n                    \n                        \n                                                    \n                                \n                            \n                                                    \n                                \n                                    There is nearby parking available in the Miami-Dade Cultural Center Garage\, 50 NW 2nd Avenue.
