    Description

    by Marilyn Butler (Author)

    Explore the storied streets of Georgetown through the voices of those who've lived, loved, and built their lives there.

    From its humble beginnings as a port town along the Potomac, the neighborhood has evolved into a place known for its historic architecture and beautiful gardens. It has also been the home of more than one famous name, including President Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Graham Bell, Jack and Jackie Kennedy, and Madeleine Albright. Today's residents have their own memories of childhood adventures in Rose Park, quirky house history discoveries, and chance encounters at the legendary Martin's Tavern. Locals from all walks of life share their stories of the people and places that have left their mark, from accidental parking sticker acquisitions to fondly remembered friends.

    Author Marilyn Butler reveals how Georgetown has shaped--and been shaped by--those who call it home.

    Author Biography

    When Marilyn Butler's first grandchild was born in Washington, D.C., she immediately took an apartment to be close and available. The rest is history. She was named "Georgetowner of the Year" in 2021 by The Georgetowner newspaper for her work on "Mapping Georgetown," a community effort to collect and archive personal stories and memories. The project will be archived with the D.C. Public Library's Peabody Room for preservation.
