SUMMARY:Jean Fruth & Jeff Idelson present Grassroots Baseball: Where Legends Begin.
DESCRIPTION:Jean Fruth & Jeff Idelson present Grassroots Baseball: Where Legends Begin. The evening includes a presentation by photographer Jean Fruth and retiring National Baseball Hall of Fame President Jeff Idelson\, on some of the legends in the book and the places they come from. Followed by a book signing.  A matching donation of the book price ($60) will be donated to Oakland Little League for every book sold at this event.  \n\n\n\n\nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of Grassroots Baseball ($60 hardcover) in advance by speaking with a bookseller. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Grassroots Baseball: Where Legends Begin\, photographer Jean Fruth features more than 250 of the best images from all levels of the amateur game in the U.S. as well as several hotbeds of baseball around the world. Each chapter opens with a portrait of a baseball legend and a first-person essay recounting his early memories of playing the game. Some of the stars highlighted in this full-color book include Whitey Ford\, Vladimir Guerrero\, Hank Aaron\, Randy Johnson\, Nolan Ryan\, and Ichiro Suzuki. The pages that follow in each chapter document the game from sandlots to big time ballparks\, and at every level of organized baseball\, giving readers a window into how these legends’ careers began. With an introduction by Cal Ripken\, Jr.\, a foreword by Steve Wulf\, and an afterword by Johnny Bench\, this book makes the perfect gift for baseball fans of all teams. \nJean Fruth has been a photographer for nearly two decades and shooting baseball for the past 15 years. She covered the San Francisco Giants and Oakland A’s before turning her attention to the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum\, where she helped to build the museum’s profile and photo archive. Today Fruth is the traveling photographer for La Vida Baseball\, a digital media company and Hall of Fame partner that tells the story of Latino baseball across the United States and Latin America. She is recognized by Sony as one of its 45 Sony Artisans of Imagery\, world-wide.
