Susan Rushton’s columns have been published in the Auburn Journal forever. Here’s the scoop:
Susan’s roots in Auburn are deep. She’s written her weekly newspaper columns for 36 years—in addition to a heartwarming book: Reflections from a Small Town. She’s been welcoming folks to “Silver Screens,” a (free) library-sponsored, monthly showing of classic movies for the last 26 years. The American Association of University Women (AAUW) welcomed her as a member 32 years ago and she’s been interviewing people for 20+ years on our local Auburn community television station, (found at youtube.com/actv20.) Children look to Susan too—in the Word Buster program, where she’s helped children learn to read for the past five years.
You can contact Susan just to say, “You go, girl!” or for more information about the above activities at: goldcountrydenizens@gmail.com. She’s eager to hear from you. We must not take this Auburn treasure for granted. Thank you, Susan, from a grateful community!
Being a film buff, I perked up at the mention of Silver Screens. How do we contact you, Susan?
Hi Lisa
Just email Susan at the email shown in the post. (They won’t let me put an email address here.) See you soon!
Susan’s columns in the Journal was a big draw for me to subscribe several years ago. Glad she is still at it, tho I now read the paper rarely. She is a tribute to community spirit!
Thank you for your thoughts, Ruth. Yes, Susan is a true, lifelong journalist.
…and a Lifelong English Major (the name of one of her series on ACTV)
Interesting …
