\nMy wife, Becky Meehan, her mother, Rev. Annette Meehan, and I had a wonderful evening at this year\u2019s Tables of Content<\/a> \u2014 a fundraiser benefiting the annual Grants Program supporting the purchase of books, periodicals, electronic resources, and other much-needed equipment and materials for all of the SMU libraries.

\n 
\nEach of the authors had a table in a lovely courtyard, serenaded by a string quartet. I met several amazing people including author PJ Hoover<\/a> (be sure to check out some of her cool books HERE<\/a>) and our table host, Dr. Ruben L.F. Habito<\/a>, Professor of World Religions and Spirituality at Perkins School of Theology. It was an evening of riveting conversation. Even former First Lady, Laura Bush was in attendance (although I didn’t get to say hi).

\nThanks to Director Amy Carver<\/a> and Coordinator Cindy Ruppi<\/a> for the honor and invitation. And a special thanks to Dr. Habito for being such a gracious host.
