TimesTalks: Ava DuVernay

Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to spend an evening with Ava DuVernay, Oscar and Golden Globe-nominated director, producer and screenwriter, as she discusses 2018’s most anticipated film, “A Wrinkle in Time” (in theaters March 9). Based on Madeleine L’Engle’s novel, it’s the story of a young girl who learns to bend the rules of time and space on a quest to save her astrophysicist father from captivity in another dimension.
