Books & Brunch was created by Assistance League of Greater Cincinnati as a fund-raising event and opportunity to feature regional and local authors. Well-known authors and illustrators including Sharon Draper, Loren Long, Phil Nuxhall, Lynn Cullen, Paul Daugherty and C.F. Payne have participated, for no fee, since the event started in 2001.
Each year, several authors and illustrators are invited to share their work with event participants, answering questions and signing autographs. Following brunch, each author gives a short presentation and guests have an opportunity to purchase the books, which are provided by The Bookshelf in Madeira. A silent auction and basket raffle also takes place as guests mingle with the writers.
