Event
Robert Spector: Celebrating Mom & Pop Stores
Business journalist Robert Spector grew up working in his family's butcher shop in New Jersey, where he learned invaluable lessons about the independent retail business and about life. Mom & Pop stores like Spector's Meat Market have always brought people together, fostering a sense of neighborhood identity and camaraderie, connecting people in big cities and small towns alike. Spector, who lives in Seattle and wrote The Nordstrom Way and The Mom & Pop Store, visited independent retailers across the country to discover the state of independent retailing, finding that small stores still thrive on attentive customer service and renewed community support for local businesses. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with University Book Store.
