Media meet in - Night Stories' at CMCA

Before they actually met, Belfast painter Linden Frederick and then-Camden writer Richard Russo knew about each other through mutual friends. "He kept running into people who said, 'Have you ever read Richard Russo's fiction?' And I would run into people who said, 'Have you ever seen Linden Frederick's paintings?' Sooner or later, our paths crossed," said Russo, now living in Portland.
