Who’s the man behind the mirth (and indelible stage name) of Mr. Stinky Feet?

Beloved family entertainer and parenting columnist Jim Cosgrove pulls back the curtain on his life in his new book for grown-up kids, Everybody Gets Stinky Feet. The youngest of eight children in a loud and loving Irish-Catholic family – and now a husband and father of two – he recalls mowing the grass of Kansas City Royals great George Brett, baking bread with nuns, and interacting with real-life angels.

In conjunction with the book’s launch, the Kansas City-area resident and frequent Library performer joins Library Director Crosby Kemper III in a discussion of his life, career, and the experiences that unite us.
