A celebration of Black History month, Lincoln's birthday, and Altadena's own griot, Leslie Perry, filled the Altadena Library Community Room with the joy of story. Here, Perry tells one of his own works in progress, where he meets the great storytellers along the road less taken .... Aesop, Jesus, the Brothers Grimm, Uncle Remus, and others.
Appreciative fans came to honor the Story Man.
Coffee Gallery owner Julie Sandoval emceed the proceedings.
