(Editor’s Note: The following info is from a press release issued this week by the Saugus Public Library.)

After suffering through an unhappy childhood, and losing her parents and a brother, Eleanor Roosevelt grew up to become one of the world’s most beloved and best-known women. The longest-serving First Lady of the United States, Eleanor Roosevelt went from a timid young woman to an outspoken advocate for workers, minorities and women. As one of the most admired people in the world, Eleanor Roosevelt continues to inspire generations to be better and do better.

One August 22 at 6:30 p.m. at the Saugus Public Library, you will have the chance to meet Eleanor Roosevelt as actress Sheryl Faye brings her to life in a one-woman performance. Faye, a graduate of Emerson College, has appeared in movies (“Analyze That,” “The Perfect Storm”) and television shows (“Sex and the City,” “The Sopranos”). Since beginning to portray famous women – from Laura Ingalls Wilder to Queen Elizabeth II – Faye has received rave reviews.
