Thursday night saw three of Roswell’s prominent citizens roasted, all in the name of history. A “celebrity roast,” the event was sponsored by the Roswell Historical Society and held in the gardens at Great Oaks.

Pastor Frank Lewis of the Zion Missionary Baptist Church, Roswell artist Joan Hilliard and Bob Farley, the artistic director of the Georgia Ensemble Theatre, were lampooned by their peers, with radio host Moby emceeing the evening.
