6-8 pm. Please join us for a special visit from local author Wayne Pletcher. We will be discussing his book Campaign of Fear. Wayne Pletcher grew up in southeastern Ohio, and worked as a clerk in the Justice Department during the turbulent 1960s. After graduating college in Ohio, he went on to earn advanced MS and PhD degrees in chemistry at the University of Michigan. Much of his early research refuted popularly accepted standards and rules about common, synthetic organic chemistry reactions. He was hired by the 3M Company, initially working at the laboratory bench where he developed new and patented materials for industry, later becoming technical director of several of 3Ms businesses. Some of his work there required a top secret clearance from the US Government. For several years following this time, he was CEO of Minnesota Technology, Inc. now Enterprise Minnesota, a non-profit consulting firm. The Campaign of Fear is a state-of-the-art political thriller that will transfix readers with its heart-pounding action.
