The format just didn't work. Fran was interviewed by a local author for 30 minutes - that was great. But then an hour was
scheduled for questions from the audience, with no microphone, so Fran couldn't hear almost anything. And instead of a person asking a question, for the most part s/he would start with a long, rambling sentence that Fran couldn't hear. Gradually people grew frustrated and started leaving in twos and threes. Would much rather have heard a lot more from Fran.

Fran Lebowitz Biography
An American author, public speaker, and occasional actor. She is known for her sardonic social commentary on American life as filtered through her New York City sensibilities and her association with many prominent figures of the 1970s and 1980s New York art scene, including Andy Warhol, Martin Scorsese, Jerome Robbins, Robert Mapplethorpe, David Wojnarowicz and the New York Dolls. The New York Times has called her a modern-day Dorothy Parker. Lebowitz gained fame for her books Metropolitan Life (1978) and Social Studies (1981), which were combined into The Fran Lebowitz Reader in 1994. She has been the subject of two projects directed by Martin Scorsese, the HBO documentary film Public Speaking (2010), and the Netflix docu-series Pretend It's a City (2021).
