SUMMARY:Visiting Author - Inside Nebraska Courthouses - Dean Settle
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we welcome local art collector\, historian\, and former gallery owner\, Dean Settle to Francie & Finch Bookshop on Saturday\, December 14th at 4:30! His new book “Inside Nebraska Courthouses” explores the cultural and architectural legacy of Nebraska’s 93 courthouses.\nABOUT THE BOOK:\nThis book is more than just a history—it’s a celebration of Nebraska’s cultural and architectural legacy. Through short narratives\, photographs\, and illustrations specific to the state’s 93 counties\, it offers a unique window into the landmarks that define the state. A must-have for anyone who appreciates regional history\, architecture\, or the stories that shape a place. \nEach of Nebraska’s 93 courthouses tells a unique story\, embodying the values\, challenges and triumphs of the communities they serve. This book honors those stories and illustrates why preserving these historic structures is essential for future generations. This collection also celebrates the remarkable journey of Dean B. Settle and his late wife\, Harriet R. Grossbart\, who traveled Nebraska to visit each courthouse. Their adventure reflects a deep passion for history\, community and the enduring significance of these civic spaces. May these pages inspire a renewed appreciation for the architectural and historical treasures found in every corner of Nebraska. – Candace Meredith\, deputy director\, Nebraska Association of County Officials. \nABOUT THE AUTHORS:\nDean B. Settle – Dean and his late wife\, Harriet\, were devoted partners in both life and work. Originally from Iowa\, Dean earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Northern Iowa and pursued postgraduate studies at the University of Wisconsin and DePaul University. Over a distinguished 51-year career in behavioral health\, Dean worked across Iowa\, Kansas and California before moving to Lincoln\, Nebraska\, in 1989. He managed extensive systems of care\, including hospitals and clinics at state and county levels\, and was actively involved in state and national rehabilitation associations. For 37 years\, he served as a surveyor for the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). A passionate art collector and former gallery owner\, Dean continues to reside in Lincoln\, where he is actively involved in Rotary Club #14 and other nonprofit organizations. His research for this book gave him the opportunity to reconnect with Nebraska’s county officials and delve into the state’s rich architectural heritage. \nHarriet R. Grossbart – Born in New York and raised in South Miami\, Harriet graduated from the University of Florida before relocating to Nebraska in 1972 to work for Lancaster County. Her career was dedicated to supporting individuals with developmental disabilities\, serving as a teacher\, administrator and advocate. After retiring\, Harriet co-founded a significant payee service company and played a key role in developing a foundation that manages special needs trusts. She also wrote legislation and manuals and contributed to professional journals. Harriet was an avid domestic and international traveler who delighted in exploring small towns and unwinding in the Sand Hills in her adopted home state. She lost a long battle with cancer in November 2023\, leaving a legacy of advocacy and a final wish for her husband of 35 years to complete their passion project. \nBook details:\n192 pages\, hardcover\n$39.95 + shipping and handling*\nEdited by Chris Christen\nDesigned by Christine Zueck-Watkins
