The Kewanee Public Library will play host to historian Dean Karau tonight for a conversation about George Randall Parrish, famed Kewanee Author and a man with a checkered criminal past that has only recently come to light. Dean will talk about Parrish’s unique history as a famous and respected author and as a man who ran a complicated check cashing scam prior to becoming famous. The event is happening tonight at 6 PM. Sara Billiet joined Wake Up Tri-Counties on Thursday to promote this event as well as more events coming to the Kewanee Public Library in August.
