Mary Roberts Rinehart

On Tuesday, November 13, the Sewickley Valley Historical Society will present a program on the mystery novelist Mary Roberts Rinehart.  The program will be presented by David Grinnell, Reference and Access Archivist at Pitt's Archives of an Industrial Society, and John Canning of the Allegheny City Society; it will focus on Rinehart's years in Old Allegheny and Glen Osborne.  Mr. Grinnell will bring some items from Pitt's archives for us to examine.  In addition, attendees can view an impressive pier glass (mirror) that belonged to Rinehart and was donated to the Historical Society by Mrs. Fred I. Sharp.  The mirror has been restored and hangs in the Old Sewickley Post Office Lobby.


The meeting is free and open to the public.  Refreshments will be served after the program.
