Event

An Evening with Anne Lamott

Join Recovery Ministries of the Episcopal Church for a rare evening with New York Times bestselling author Anne Lamott.

Lamott writes and speaks about subjects that begin with capital letters: Alcoholism, Motherhood, Jesus. But armed with self-effacing humor - she is laugh-out-loud funny - and ruthless honesty, Lamott converts her subjects into enchantment.

The evening is part of The Gathering, a national conference of Recovery Ministries of the Episcopal Church, and will includes a 20 minute reading by the author, followed by an on stage interview of Lamott by the Right Reverend Greg Rickel of the Diocese of Olympia,and an audience Q&A session where you may EVEN get to ask Annie a question yourself. The night will conclude with a book signing by the author.

Lamott has been honored with a Guggenheim Fellowship, and has taught at the University of California at Davis, as well as at writing conferences across the country. Her biweekly Salon Magazine online diary Word by Word was voted The Best of the Web by Time Magazine.

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Freida Mock has made a documentary on Anne entitled "Bird by Bird with Annie." Anne Lamott has also been inducted into the California Hall of Fame.

This is a one-time event you will not want to miss!
