Member News: Beach Bum by Robert Freedman Published

Congratulations to Robert Freedman on the Release of Beach Bum


Beach Bum: A Life in Pieces looks at the many paths and people that go into the making of a life. It is a pessimist’s endorsement of hope and keeping on. In a series of connected personal essays, both humorous and deadly serious, Freedman traces his attempts to live a meaningful life. He writes about issues ranging from his rejection and later embrace of Judaism to dealing with hepatitis C to a return to surfing at the age of 70.

Freedman celebrated the book’s release with a reading from his book on September 30th. Fifty percent of book sales went to Rock the Vote, dedicated to engaging millennials in progressive politics and GOTV.
