  • Biu Withers by Rob Bowman He Was the Leading Figure in the Nascent Black Singer-Songwriter Movement of the Early 1970S
    PERFORMERS BiU Withers By Rob Bowman He was the leading figure in the nascent black singer-songwriter movement of the early 1970s. BILL WITHERS WAS SIMPLY NOT BORN TO PLAY THE record industry game. His oft-repeated descriptor for A&R men is “antagonistic and redundant.” Not surprisingly, most A&R men at Columbia Records, the label he recorded for beginning in 1975, considered him “difficult.” Yet when given the freedom to follow his muse, Withers wrote, sang, and in many cases produced some of our most enduring classics, including “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lean on Me,” “Use Me,” “Lovely Day,” “Grandma’s Hands,” and “Who Is He (and What Is He to You).” ^ “Not a lot of people got me,” Withers recently mused. “Here I was, this black guy playing an acoustic guitar, and I wasn’t playing the gut-bucket blues. People had a certain slot that they expected you to fit in to.” ^ Withers’ story is about as improb­ able as it could get. His first hit, “Ain’t No Sunshine,” recorded in 1971 when he was 33, broke nearly every pop music rule. Instead of writing words for a bridge, Withers audaciously repeated “I know” twenty-six times in a row. Moreover, the two-minute song had no introduction and was released as a throwaway B-side. Produced by Stax alumni Booker T. Jones for Sussex Records, the single’s struc­ ture, sound, and sentiment were completely unprecedented and pos­ sessed a melody and lyric that tapped into the Zeitgeist of the era. Like much of Withers’ work, it would ultimately prove to be timeless.

  • Our Library Has Just Received a Gift of 100 New Children's Books, Ranging from Pre-Kindergarten Through Early Readers
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 100 Martine Avenue, White Plains, NY CONTACT INFORMATION 914-422-1480 www.whiteplainslibrary.org CALL: 914-422-6947 Nancy Kunz [email protected] News Release White Plains Landmarks in Lego® on Display at City Hall WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (November 16, 2015) – Children in The Trove’s (White Plains Public Library’s award- winning children’s library) Lego® Club built White Plains, all in Lego®! The public is invited to view the project on display at The White Plains City Hall (255 Main Street, White Plains, NY 10601) beginning November 17 and continuing through December 2015. Previously, the club had built a Lego® model of The New New York Bridge (the bridge that will replace the Tappan Zee Bridge). After a request by a community member to create the church he was affiliated with in Lego®, the club realized it had the opportunity to create many notable buildings in the White Plains area. In consultation with Librarian for White Plains History Ben Himmelfarb, eighteen White Plains buildings were selected for the project. Photographs of the buildings were taken and the Lego® construction took place throughout the summer and into the new school year. From the photographs, children were able to visualize and create Lego® models of the following buildings: The Church of Saint Bernard Congregation Kol Ami First Church of Christ, Scientist Jacob Purdy House Kensico Terrace Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church Peoples National Bank and Trust Company Building Shinnyo-en Buddhist Temple Trump Tower at City Center Verizon Building Westchester County Center Westchester County Court White Plains Armory White Plains City Hall White Plains, Metro North Railroad Station White Plains Public Library White Plains Public Schools Education House Women’s Club of White Plains This project has given children the opportunity to experience all the educational benefits of playing with Lego® blocks.
