In thirty-five essays Wendy Wasserstein's
Shiksa Goddess covers everything from her sister's battle with cancer to the charm of cardboard coffee cups. She joins our Author Series to share insights from that book and from a writing career that includes the Pulitzer- and Tony-Award-winning play The Heidi Chronicles. Washington University called her speaking style "pure Wasserstein--warm and witty and wise and intelligent, honest and evocative."
Wendy Wasserstein has been a member of the Library for many years and serves on the boards of Channel 13/WNET and the Guggenheim Foundation. She has also taught at New York University, Columbia and Princeton.
