The local community was often his setting. Several of his books were also made into movies including Ten North Frederick, Butterfield 8, From the Terrace, A Rage to Live and Pal Joey.  O’Hara was a member of the SCC and as part of the club’s 2021 Centennial Year Celebration.  Starting at 6 p.m., the evening will be a walk down memory lane, as guests enjoy jazz music, specialty cocktails, a short program with audience interaction and a brief discussion of O’Hara’s book ,“Appointment in Samarra.”  The cost is $35.00 per person for the dinner.
