I'm doing a Zoom presentation, "Ernest Lehman: Woodmere's Gift to Hollywood," for the Hewlett Woodmere Public Library in the Five Towns area of Long Island in New York State. The presentation will show the origins of master screenwriter Ernest Lehman on the south shore of Long Island. The link will be posted here when it becomes available.

Wednesday, April 19, 7 p.m.
Courtesy of master archivist Hilary Swett, I'll appear at the Writers Guild of America West. Ernest Lehman was a long-time member, activist and Guild official, culminating (if that's the right word) in his presidency of the Guild from 1983 to 1985, a period that covers the 1985 Writers strike. I'll read from the book, take audience questions and sign copies.

Courtesy of my indefatigable publicist, Carrie Eisner, it will be all Ernest Lehman all the time Tuesday night, May 30, on Turner Classic Movies. Here's the schedule:
8:00 p.m.: "North By Northwest" (1959)
10:30 p.m.: "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966)
12:15 a.m (on 5/31): "Sweet Smell of Success" (1957)
Times listed are for the Eastern Time Zone. As "Virginia Woolf" is being introduced and after "Sweet Smell" concludes, they'll mention the book, although it isn't clear yet if they're going to use the cover image we sent them. Tune in and find out!
