I’m very excited to introduce films, give talks about Ursula in Hollywood, and sign books, too. It’ll be great to see some old friends and make new ones on the road (confession: I’ve never been to Wisconsin before!).
If you know people who live in these areas, I’d truly appreciate if if you’d share my tour information with them. A small book like mine depends on word of mouth, so thank you for helping me spread the word.
Speaking of travel...Ursula Parrott spent a lot of time in Bermuda, a popular American tourist destination that was favored by many New York writers such as Eugene O’Neill, who owned a home there, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, who went for the first time in 1933, stayed at the Hotel St. George, rode bicycles, and enjoyed drinking sherry on the hotel's veranda.
This advertisement in College Humor magazine (December 1930 issue) shows what it might have been like on board one of the many ships that embarked from the port of New York, where Parrott would have boarded, to various island destinations. These games look pretty fun! And I especially like the women’s sporty attire.
