/ June 3, 2025

The event

Akron native Carl Quatraro will mark the 50th anniversary of the movie “Jaws” with a presentation titled “Jaws: 50 Years of Terror” at 6:30 PM on Tuesday, June 3 in the community room at the Dover Public Library, located at 525 N. Walnut Street. He willl talk about the details of how this 1975 film was made and the many obstacles young Steven Spielberg had to overcome to get the film made. Quatraro shows many film clips featuring the actors and, of course, the shark.

Carl Quatraro has spent his whole life in the Akron area. He graduated from Walsh Jesuit High School and The University of Akron and lives in Fairlawn. Carl retired from Liberty Mutual Insurance and now stays involved in his community by delivering entertaining and informative presentations to local libraries, senior and professional associations and retirement centers. He credits this new chapter in his retirement to the speaking skills he learned in his 15-year membership with Toastmasters International.

This program will be held on Tuesday, June 3 at 6:30 PM in the Community Room at the library, located at 525 N. Walnut Street, Dover.  Register online at www.doverlibrary.org/events or call the library at 330-343-6123.
