About this event

Join us on Friday November 6, 2026 from 2:30-4:00pm for an Author Pop-Up with Martha LaGuardia Kotite as she signs books and chats with customers.

About Martha J. LaGuardia-Kotite:

Martha J. LaGuardia-Kotite is a retired U.S. Coast Guard captain, award-winning author, motivational and TEDx speaker, and ocean conservationist. During her distinguished 29-year military career, she became one of the first female officers to serve aboard cutters with all-male crews and later served as press secretary to the Coast Guard Commandant.

Beyond her military service, Martha is an acclaimed author and speaker dedicated to preserving and sharing stories of military heroism and ocean advocate.

Martha will be signing books, including her debut, So Others May Live: Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers: Saving Lives, Defying Death. The book chronicles the extraordinary history of these unsung aviation heroes and directly inspired the Disney/Touchstone film The Guardian , starring Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher.
