A trio of preeminent New York Times sports columnists – Dave Anderson, George Vecsey and Harvey Araton – will reflect on the extraordinary life and career of Yogi Berra in a panel discussion at the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center on Monday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m.
Copies of a New York Times commemorative book, “Yogi,” featuring rare photographs and stories edited by Anderson – will also be available for purchase.
Anderson, a Pulitzer Prize winner who covered Berra as a young reporter in the 1950s, will be joined by Vecsey, who began at the Times in the late 1960s and has written six national best-selling books, and Araton, a Montclair neighbor of Berra who also wrote the acclaimed 2012 book “Driving Mr. Yogi,” about his unique friendship with Ron Guidry.
Tickets for the event, which includes discussion and a copy of “Yogi,” are $25. For discussion only, $10. To RSVP: (973) 655-2378.
