Food for Thought: dinner with Amy Dickinson

Amy Dickinson told NPR that her hometown of Freeville, NY, is mostly a town of leavers and stayers – and that she managed to do both. Dickinson is the nationally-syndicated Ask Amy advice columnist and New York Times bestselling author whose memoir – Strangers Tend to Tell Me Things: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Coming Home – chronicles romance, death, parenting, divorce, aging, spiritual awakening, and other pressure points familiar to those who have surfed in the wake of life’s twists and turns. A panelist on NPR’s Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me!, with appearances on Good Morning America and the Today Show, Dickinson is a wry straight shooter whose sage advice has made her one of America’s most beloved advice columnists (stepping onto the national stage to replace Ann Landers’ cannot have been easy). Come meet the woman who grew up on a dairy farm, comes from a family of nerds (they would diagram sentences for fun), and has written a courageously honest memoir that empowers, heals, and entertains.

TICKETS $100/$90 members, includes seasonal dinner by farm-to-table chef Brian Alberg, wine, and book.
