Author Barry S. Martin will be coming to South Orange this Friday, Sept. 23, as a part of Seton Hall Weekend to discuss his new book on Seton Hall’s first sports All-American, Bob Davies.
The book, Bob Davies: A Basketball Legend, is a publication eight years in the making on the basketball superstar that started his career in South Orange. The publication uses photos, archival materials and personal interviews to tell Davies’ story. In the book, Martin discusses how Davies was one of the first three NBA superstars, and goes through his life and career history.
“Growing up I watched Bob Davies play for the NBA Rochester Royals,” Martin told The Setonian.
