Museum After Hours: Local author Bob Freeman

Local author Bob Freeman will be joining us to speak about his book ?Washington State Penitentiary ? A Short Conversational History of the First Century" to be followed by a book signing. Bob Freeman started at the prison in 1948 as a psychologist. Freeman?s 45-page illustrated narrative covers the first century of the penitentiary from its inception in 1886-1887 up to the end of the ?Concrete Mama? era in 1981. Copies of ?Washington State Penitentiary ? A Short Conversational History of the First Century? are available at the museum store.
