David BowieOn January 10th of this year we lost one of the most the most innovative musical performers of the late 1960’s on: David Bowie.  David Bowie managed to re-invent his stage persona and musical style to fit the times and keep himself relevant.  Bowie was not just a talented musician and singer.  He was also a talented actor and he starred in a number memorable and now classic films.  In his first major role his acting ability and unique looks brought the alien character of Thomas Jerome Newton to a life in The Man Who Fell to Earth.  And few who have seen the film Labyrinth can forget him as the King of the Goblins in his M.C. Escher inspired castle.

Below I have provided a link which will bring up a list of Monroe County Public library’s holdings wish feature the music, writing or acting talent of David Bowie.  Mr. Bowie, you will be missed.
