The Hollywood Blacklist and New York

Symphony Space and TPD Productions present The Hollywood Blacklist and New York

2017 marks the seventieth anniversary of the blacklist—in which hundreds of actors, directors, and other film artists were denied employment in Hollywood—although no Hollywood studios or producers would publicly admit that such a blacklist even existed.

Christine Pedi, one of the hosts of the Sirius XM On Broadwaychannel (whose late cousin Tom Pedi was a victim of the blacklist), will moderate a panel of those who experienced the blacklist firsthand: Academy Award®-winning actress Lee Grant and others whose careers suffered as a result of the blacklist—as well as the sons and daughters of well- known performers (including Zero Mostel, Jack Gilford, and John Garfield) who were blacklisted. Television and film clips will be interspersed throughout the conversation.











When: Mon., Oct. 30, 2017 at 7:00 pm
Where: Symphony Space
2537 Broadway
