Ed Simon Will Talk About His Book - The Soul of Pittsburgh: Essays On Life, Community and History

Author Ed Simon has a scheduling conflict and requested to reschedule this program. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you.

Ed Simon will discuss his 13 related essays on Pittsburgh as a place with a strong sense of community as well as a place of some contradiction. 

While Pittsburgh's rivers were once lined with belching steel mills, it is the same place that hosted the world's first major modern art exhibition. 

From the decline in the steel industry to the exodus of many Pittsburghers and the reinvention of the city, the Steel City is everchanging. 

Ed Simon will discuss everything from U.S. Steel to dive bars, churches, black and gold and bridges.

You won't want to miss this walk through Pittsburgh history and what makes our city so special.

Copies of Ed's book will be on-hand to purchase
