Please join us when award-winning filmmaker Eric Delabarre reads and signs SALTWATER TAFFY.

Endorsed by "Teachers of the Year" around the country, "Eric DelaBarre's Saltwater Taffy" follows the lives of five friends as they uncover a treasure map that once belonged to the ruthless New Orleans pirate, Jean Lafitte. The discovery thrusts them from one treasure hunting adventure to the next as they try to out-wit, out-think and out-maneuver everyone from the one-legged junk-yard man and an overbearing town bully, to the creepy old man living at the top of the hill. "Saltwater Taffy" is a raceto-the-finish adventure that will capture your heart, again and again!

As a writer from the TV show, THE BIG EASY, Eric DelaBarre said he will always love New Orleans and he is looking forward to hearing some great music in the Treme and catching up with old friends. He is an award winning filmmaker, speaker, and most recently, a ghostwriter for Random House/Harmony Books. Eric began his career with Dick Wolf on NBC’s mega-hit drama Law & Order, and has worked with 20th Century Fox, Samuel Goldwyn Films, Universal Studios and Lions Gate Films. His work has been sold around the world and showcased on HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz/Encore, USA Network, and NBC. Eric is also the past-president of the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Monica Council.
