A State of the Union Conversation: Fran Lebowitz and Frank Rich October 19, 2012

Two of today’s foremost cultural and political observers engage in a live, onstage conversation around current themes as the presidential election race roars on—discussing what is at stake and much more. Fran Lebowitz, the cultural satirist whom many call the heir to Dorothy Parker, “is feisty, funny, tart—a classic New Yorker” (Variety). Frank Rich has in recent years turned his critic’s eye to politics, in eminently readable writings about the Bush administration and more. “Whatever you think of Rich’s opinions, there’s no denying that he’s an impressive writer and thinker” (The New York Times). This is an evening you will talk and think about long after the lights have gone out.
