Fran Lebowitz & Frank Rich: A Conversation on Art and Politics
- 8PM
Beloved cultural satirist Fran Lebowitz and longtime journalist and commentator Frank Rich come together for an evening of sparkling conversation about everything from race and gender to culture and politics.
Purveyor of urban cool, witty chronicler of the “me decade,” and the cultural satirist many call the heir to Dorothy Parker, Fran Lebowitz is the author of the bestselling essay collections Metropolitan Life and Social Studies and the children’s book Mr. Chas and Lisa Sue Meet the Pandas. She recently broke a 10-year writer’s block and is back at work on her novel Exterior Signs of Wealth.
