Passion to profession

MORAVIA #- From an early age Leslie Joshi, the new director of the Powers Library in Moravia, was fascinated by books and all the wonderful knowledge and potential they contained.

“I think I was first influenced by the fact that my father was a history professor,” said the Seattle native. “Our house was always full of books.”

Early on, Joshi made her passion for books a regular part of her life, volunteering in her elementary school library, a tradition she kept up through her college years.
