Congressman @RepTimRyan & Author Robyn O’Brien Sign Books @TOWNHALLOHC

TimRyan

Tue 8/4 @ 8PM

Congressman Tim Ryan of Youngstown seems like an unlikely sort to be promoting holistic living. He’s a big, strapping guy who looks like the former high school football player he was. And he’s from YOUNGSTOWN — a tough-as-nails, hardscrabble town if there ever was one. But he’s been a big promoter of the concept of mindful living, publishing a book called A Mindful Nation in 2012. And last fall he put out another called The Real Food Revolution: Healthy Eating, Green Groceries, and the Return of the American Family Farm, which advocates moving away from a fast food lifestyle in order to be healthier. Robyn O’Brien worked as a food industry analyst for years, which moved her to activism to the point of being called “food’s Erin Brockovich.” Her book The Unhealthy Truth: How Our Food Is Making Us Sick and What We Can Do About It dovetails neatly with the premise of Ryan’s latest tome. That’s likely why the two are hooking up to do a meet-and-greet and book signing event at Ohio City’s Townhall, a restaurant that promotes vegetarian and even vegan eating and has gone 100 percent GMO-free. Books will be available for purchase there. The event is free. facebook.com/events/ robynobrien.com timryan.house.gov
