About the event
Join us for an evening of laughter, storytelling, and heart with Jon Kinnally, an award-winning American TV writer of Will & Grace, Ugly Betty and 2 Broke Girls.
Jon will be reading from his new memoir, I’m Prancing as Fast as I Can: My Journey from a Self-Loathing Closet Case to a Successful TV Writer with Some Self-Esteem — a sharp, funny, and deeply personal look at his path from growing up closeted in upstate New York to becoming one of the voices behind some of television’s most beloved shows.
Expect witty reflections on life, comedy, and identity, followed by a lively Q&A and book signing. Be sure to compliment his hair.
