Nutley NJ Notables in Two Volumes

The Men and Women Who Made a Memorable Impact on Our Hometown, Nutley, New Jersey

In Two Volumes

By Anthony Buccino

NUTLEY, NJ -- Nutley writer and author Anthony Buccino has published two volumes of Nutley Notables, the Men and Women Who Made a Memorable Impact on Our Home Town, Nutley, New Jersey.

The township of Nutley, New Jersey, has accumulated a wealth of celebrated and eccentric people who over-shadowed the salt-of-the-earth folks who lived here, raised their families and built the town into the place that Norman Rockwell only dreamed of illustrating for the cover of the Saturday Evening Post.

Our Nutley Notables include Old West sharpshooter Annie Oakley who has a street here named in her honor; home-diva Martha Stewart who grew up on Elm Place and often writes of growing up in Nutley but has no street named for her; Ruth Bedford who sponsors the annual tea for the Nutley Family Service Bureau, would likely frown upon the undue attention of Rue Bedford; and others who may have to wait a while for street naming honors.

Featured individuals run the gamut from politicians to high school coaches and athletes; from notorious personalities to beloved entertainers to the fellow in the local shop to the artists and writers who toiled long ago and today. Their images and stories document the unique contributions they've made that shaped Nutley today.

The author thanks the Nutley Historical Society and the Nutley Free Public Library for allowing access to their vast archives and experts in compiling this first volume of Nutley Notables.

A book about Nutley notables, more than one-hundred people profiled here made a memorable impact on Nutley, New Jersey, throughout history to today.

Volume Two co-mingles the people with the history of our town and although you think you know your Nutley history, there are bound to be a few surprises here.

This volume pays plenty of attention to the many women throughout Nutley history who have volunteered their time and talents to a better hometown and a better world. We also highlight a few of the major league sports talents who lived in town and left pleasant memories with children and adults.
