Thanks to a generous audience and the draw of bestselling author Michael Connelly, the 30th annual fundraiser brought in more than $150,000 for literacy programs throughout Palm Beach County. Nearly 450 guests attended while dozens more tuned in virtually. Connelly, a former South Florida crime reporter, talked about his life’s journey to becoming one of the most well-known authors in the world.
