What Everyone’s Talking About: Alan Alda WAIT LIST ONLY

Join us as Abigail interviews the Tony- and Oscar-nominated, seven-time Emmy Award-winning actor, director, and writer Alan Alda. For over a decade as the host of PBS’ Scientific American Frontiers, as well as in his role in Stony Brook University’s Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science, Alda has been helping people grasp complex ideas. In his lively book, If I Understood You, Would I Have This Look on My Face? Alda uses his trademark humor to teach us how to better communicate and learn from each other.

In this blockbuster series, Abigail Pogrebin–author and former 60 Minutes producer–unpacks the controversies, careers, and events in the news with fascinating guests. Abigail Pogrebin, a Yale graduate, is the author of Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk about Being Jewish and One and the Same: My Life as an Identical Twin and What I’ve Learned About Everyone’s Struggle to be Singular. Abigail began her career in broadcast journalism, producing for Fred W. Friendly, Charlie Rose, and Bill Moyers at PBS, and then for six years at CBS News’ 60 Minutes, first as a producer for Ed Bradley, then for Mike Wallace. Her new book, My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays, One Wondering Jew, chronicles her immersion into the Jewish calendar. She lives in Manhattan with her husband and two children.
