Lisa Ebersole and Anne Pelletier
This monthly Paragraph reading series features the writing of its members. Join us for some fabulous stories by Lisa Ebersole and Anne Pelletier. This reading is proud to be part of Litquake's legendary Lit Crawl. Free and open to the public.
Lisa Ebersole's feature film Brother recently premiered at Tribeca Cinemas. Brother was a play that Lisa directed and acted in at The Paradise Theatre. Her other playes –People Die That Way, Methinks, and Mouth Pieces–have been produced off off Broadway in New York. Her newest play, Mother, will open in late 2009. Lisa graduated from NYU and studied acting with Tom Noonan and Austin Pendleton.
Anne Pelletier is a Research Arts student in the MFA Program in Fiction Writing at Columbia University. There she developed Meat and Meat Byproducts, a thematically-linked collection of stories about all kinds of hunger. She has taught a writing workshop to a group of lovely, talented and super-smart undergraduates whom she loves. She conjugates the verb "to lie " in her sleep and reads Fowler's to relax. Anne lives in New York City and is at work on a novel.
Litquake's legendary Lit Crawl is going east for a massive, one night literary extravaganza in New York City on September 27. The madcap concept, created in 2004 in San Francisco, kicks-off in the Lower East Side at 6PM (highlighted by events curated by FSG Books and the New Yorker's Ben Greenman), wanders up to the East Village for 7:15PM readings (with Canteen Magazine and NY Tyrant starring), then heads over the bridge to Williamsburg for delights at 8:30PM (where Opium's Literary Death Match and BOMB Magazine will be in the spotlight). All events followed by a party for the ages in Williamsburg!
