Martin Co. native to discuss latest book

A Martin County native is coming back home to Williamston to talk about her third book. Leah Weiss, who was born in Williamston, left North Carolina around the age of 10. She spent the rest of her adolescence in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. This will be Weiss’ second time to visit Martin Memorial in recent years to discuss her books. In 2021, she visited to talk about her second book All the Little Hopes, which takes place in a town much like Williamston — the fictional Riverton — during World War II. Weiss said Williamston’s historic German POW camp inspired All the Little Hopes. Wiess considers herself “southern by grace.” “My roots run deep in the flat lands of North Carolina,” she said. Her first book, If the Creek Don’t Rise, set in Appalachia, sold over 100,000 copies. Weiss began writing full-time after retiring from a 24-year career as Executive Assistant to the headmaster at Virginia Episcopal School in 2015, becoming a best-selling author late in life. Ann Phelps, who retired as branch librarian at Martin Memorial in 2023 after 25 years, is now chair of The Friends of Martin Memorial Library. (The Friends of Martin Memorial Library

Tar River Art Gallery at the Mills now open

Marion Clark Weathers immediately recalled the genesis of her becoming an artist. “When I was in the third grade, my report card said: Marion doesn’t pay attention in class. She’s always drawing,” Weathers said Wednesday in an interview. Weathers of Rocky Mount was speaking about the days when she was an elementary school student in Orangeburg, S.C. The graduate of the University of Georgia’s art school has been an artist throughout her life. Her creativity is readily evident locally. Her design of two trains is featured on a mural just off Southwest Main Street downtown. Artist Ashley Fabrizio painted the mural. More of Weathers’s creativity is now displayed at the Tar River Art Gallery at the Mills. The gallery opened Sunday in a building off Falls Road in what was the Larema Beverage Co. before the business closed in November 2025. The building, which dates back to 1835, is part of the Rocky Mount Mills commercial and residential development. “I’ve always believed in having art in Rocky Mount,” Weathers said, adding that the new location “will elevate us to where we need to be.” The gallery is an expansion of the nonprofit Tar River Art Gallery, which has art displayed
