Have you ever wondered what is involved in producing the small bit of entertainment with which you might start your day?  Join us at the Woodbridge Main Library January 15 at 7PM for a lecture that will walk you through the steps of creating a crossword puzzle, from concept to completion.  Follow the process, see the resources used, and gain insight into the attention to detail that is at the foundation of a quality puzzle.

Ruth B. Margolin broke into the field of crossword puzzle construction in 2014. She has since had fifteen puzzles published in the New York Times, including five Sunday puzzles. In addition, she has had puzzles published in the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and the L.A. Times, and she now has a monthly crossword feature in her local New Jersey newspaper.   She also serves as an Official at the annual American Crossword Puzzle Tournament. In her professional life, Ruth was the director of a variety of educational programs and schools over the past several decades.  She now spends her time involved in intensive volunteer work in the community, and she writes puzzles as a hobby. With a love of words and an empty nest, Ruth enjoys the creativity of making puzzles, and she gets a kick out of the conversations that result from her unusual response to the inevitable small talk question: “So, what do you do?”
