The Needham Historical Society will celebrate the publication of 'The Knitters of Needham,' a book by Chaim M. Rosenberg that documents the history of the textile industry in Needham.

Storyteller Cindy Rivka Marshall will appear, in period dress, as “Claire”- a woman who worked at the Thorpe (later called Gorse) Mill at the turn of the 20th century.

By hearing the story told in the first person, and being able to interact with the storyteller, the audience will get a sense of the people that lived in Needham more than 100 years ago.
