PRELACY P. R. COMMITTEE ORGANIZES A BOOK PRESENTATION
The Western Prelacy Public Relations Committee, under the auspices of H.E.
Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, Prelate, has organized a book presentation
event to be held on Sunday, April 30, at 6:00 p.m. at the `Armenak Der
Bedrossian' Hall of St. Mary's Church in Glendale. The book that will be
presented was a lost manuscript of Diana Apcar, Ambassador of the Republic
of Armenia to Japan during the first Armenian Republic (1918-1920), titled
`From the Book of One Thousand Tales, Stories of Armenia and its People,
1892-1922'. The manuscript was found and published by Lucille Apcar,
granddaughter of Diana Apcar, who will make the presentation.
Diana Apcar, besides her diplomatic career, was a renowned
writer and author of several books. In the 1920's, the building she lived
in collapsed due to an earthquake and the manuscript for the aforementioned
book was lost in the rubble. Many years later, the manuscript was found and
her granddaughter Lucille Apcar published it into a book.
The Western Prelacy Public Relations Committee has invited
Lucille Apcar to Los Angeles to present her grandmother's recovered
manuscript and to tell the public more about her grandmother's role in and
service to the Armenian Community from the far away land of Japan.
Following the official program there will be a reception and
book signing.
