A Conversation with Lee Grant
Join us for an evening with Lee Grant, whose talent, intelligence, grit and passion have made her one of the most respected and beloved figures in the entertainment world. Grant first gained acclaim as an award-winning star of stage and screen, then went on to have a distinguished three-decade career as a director, a remarkable achievement for a woman of her day. In 1989, Women in Film honored Grant with its first ever Lifetime Achievement Award. She received NYWIFT's Muse Award in 2004.
Grant recounts her fascinating story in her new memoir, I Said Yes to Everything. There will be a book signing directly following the event.
