EBHF Special “The Bronx, The Super Bowl “ Sat Jan 10th 11:00am Bronx 100 Exhibit 10: 00 am

The Huntington Free Library and Reading Room is pleased to announce The East Bronx History Forum will host a special Super Bowl event and Bronx 100 Exhibit on Saturday January 10th 2015 at 11:00 am.

As we ring in the New Year, it is always a time to look ahead, but it is also a time to reflect on our past.

Football will also be front and center as family and friends share the holiday season rooting for their favorite team.  Who will the friends and members of The East Bronx History Forum and The Huntington Free Library and Reading Room be rooting for in the Super Bowl and the various college Bowl games?  You will have to ask the Professor, Professor Victor Mastro!
 
Professor Victor Mastro will lead a presentation and lecture titled “The Bronx, The Super Bowl “at the Huntington Free Library, 9 Westchester Square Bronx NY.   Professor Mastro will reveal his choices for the players and teams to support, because of their special connection to the Bronx.   Professor Mastro has used his lifetime collection of Bronx Football history and facts to weave a fun and fascinating presentation.  Do you know who coached the Green Bay Packers to victory in Super Bowl I & II?  Do you know what Bronx school and position he played?  Hint: “The Seven Blocks of Granite”.
 
Victor Mastro is a Hudson County Community College Professor, a former Bronx history teacher and native Bronx resident.  He has researched many Bronx topics and has used his skill as an artist to bring art and history together.  Professor Mastro has made numerous presentations at Bronx libraries using his original collages to illustrate his lectures. Members and guests can also participate with their own Bronx football facts.
