Laha Mau Book Talks: Sunny Skies, Shady Characters, by Jim Dooley
December 9, 4:00pm - 5:30pmMānoa Campus, Hamilton Library 301
In his new book, James Dooley revisits highlights of his career as a hard-hitting reporter for the Honolulu Advertiser and, in later years, for KITV television and the online Hawaii Reporter. Join us as he shares lively backstories about chasing high-profile scandals and provides an insider’s look at the business of journalism and the craft of investigative reporting.
Following the talk, Dooley will sign copies of Sunny Skies, Shady Characters: Cops, Killers, and Corruption in the Aloha State, recently published by UH Press.
This event is the second installment of Laha Mau Book Talks, a series of readings and lectures featuring local authors and celebrating the UHM Library and UH Press's shared commitment to spreading knowledge.
