Join Bing Crosby’s niece, Carolyn Schneider, at 7:00 pm, Thursday, June 24, at the Nevada State Museum for a book signing and presentation discussing her book, Bing: on the Road to Elko.
Schneider tenderly shares memories and stories of her uncle away from the lights and cameras and microphones. In this segment of the museum’s Frances Humphrey Lecture Series, Carolyn reveals the other side of Bing Crosby—a long time gone, but not forgotten. She captures the 15-year period of Bing’s life as owner and operator of a large cattle spread in Elko County from 1943 to 1958, including chapters on becoming Elko’s honorary mayor—plus the famous denim tuxedo.
