JUPITER, Fla. (February 8, 2016) - Florida Atlantic University’s Lifelong Learning Society Jupiter will present a lecture by award-winning columnist, sports commentator and author John Feinstein on Tuesday, Feb. 23 at 7 p.m. in the Lifelong Learning Society complex at FAU’s John D. MacArthur Campus, 5353 Parkside Dr., in Jupiter.

Feinstein’s lecture, “An Evening with John Feinstein,” will include personal stories about some of the world’s most favorite sports figures, such as Bob Knight, Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski and Tiger Woods, along with his time spent with a NFL team and his chronicling of Tom Glavine and Mike Mussina, two baseball hall of famers.

Feinstein is the author of 35 books, including two No. 1 New York Times bestsellers: “A Good Walk Spoiled” and “A Season on the Brink.” His first children’s mystery, “Last Shot,” won the Edgar Allen Poe Award for mystery writing in the young adult category. He currently works as a columnist for The Washington Post, Golf Digest and Golf World. He is a regular contributor to the Golf Channel and hosts a college basketball show and a golf show for SiriusXM. His next book to be published is “The Legends Club,” a chronicle of the rivalries and friendships among Smith, Krzyzewski and Jim Valvano.

 Ken and Felice Hassan, long-time members and supporters of FAU’s Lifelong Learning Society Jupiter, are sponsoring the event.
