BOSTON – Coming up on the third anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombings, portrayals of the unforgettable race day on April 15, 2013, are soon to abound.
A play focusing on the victims, "Finish Line," debuted previews Thursday at the NonProfit Center in Boston. Dorchester-born Hollywood director Mark Wahlberg is building a cast for "Patriots Day," which is expected to depict the events of that week in 2013. Another film in the works, "Stronger," will also feature victims.
Uninspired by the presidential race? This past weekend brought an emphatic reminder that some of the most consequential lives are led by those who are never elected to political office.
The reminder came in the form of the obituaries for Barbara Anderson, who for 35 years was executive director of a Massachusetts grassroots group called Citizens for Limited Taxation.
