E.L. Doctorow 1931-2015

E.L. Doctorow 1931-2015


Everyone here at the New Rochelle Public Library is deeply saddened by the death of E.L. Doctorow.

A frequent and gracious patron while working on his historical novels, Mr. Doctorow was also an ardent supporter of the library.

We would like to share with you some images, including Mr. Doctorow's Walk of Fame sign that graces Library Green, and this quote from the great author:

“The three most important documents a free society gives are a birth certificate, a passport, and a library card.”

We offer our sincere condolences to his wife, Helen, and three children, Jenny, Caroline and Richard.
