The Library is pleased to present a new series of daytime talks by and for writers. The second Tuesday of each month will feature a lively discussion with a different speaker about the writing life. All members are welcome; there is no fee and no registration is required. Sessions take place in the Whitridge Room and last about 90 minutes. Watch future newsletters for announcements of more second-Tuesday talks.

William Finkelstein is an Emmy Award-winning producer and screenwriter of the television dramas L.A. Law, Law and Order, Brooklyn South, Murder One, and NYPD Blue, and a former attorney. In this talk he will share how he moved from practicing law to writing for hit legal and crime dramas and what it takes to be a screenwriter today.
