The Literary Branch Presents:
​​Novelist Ron Phillips
February 4th at 3:00 p.m.

Saturday, Feb 4, 3 p.m. The Argentine dictator Juan Peron and his wife Evita were larger-than-life characters who continue to fascinate historians -- and artists too. Evita, of course, inspired the hit Broadway musical "Evita," with a score by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Now it's her husband's turn for the fictional treatment. Ojai novelist Ron Phillips has taken a real-life event involving the late dictator and turned it into a historical thriller, "The Hands of Juan Peron."
