Upcoming Dorothy Parker and F. Scott Fitzgerald Events in Los Angeles with Adrienne Crew.
The West Coast Dorothy Parker Society has 2 events coming up that you
will not want to miss if you are anywhere close to the City of Angels:
Come meet fellow LA Parkerites for a no-host lunch at Greenblatt’s on
Sunday, February 21, 2010 at 1 PM. Adrienne Crew will be there to chew
the fat and talk about the Parker connections in the neighborhood.
Come with ideas for planning other Parker events this year, including
Parkerfest 2010 in October or more walking tours. Don’t miss this if
you are a Parker fan in LA; bring your friends.
Greenblatt’s Delicatessen
8017 W Sunset Blvd
West Hollywood, CA 90046
(323) 656-0606
Also, [Adrienne is] heading a walking tour of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s West
Hollywood as part of the City of West Hollywood’s Big Read initiative
surrounding The Great Gatsby. I was hoping to encourage Parker fans to
come out and then organize a breakfast before hand or drinks after the
tour. I’m giving two 1-hour tours on Sunday March 7. Event info:

That’s a new version of my last name–heh. Not surprising, since I don’t use it in my online moniker. It’s Goring.
Cool DP events! Wish I lived closer.

Yipes! Of course! Gorman is a town in SoCal and the last name of one of my coworkers. Fixed now! Thanks!

I’m enjoying the book I won last month. They do a lifewriting class at UBC using this book.
