The Writing Life

Uptown at Night, Fall 2018

Uptown at Night returns to the Members’ Room with a vibrant new lineup of humorous storytellers and comedians: Meghan Daum, C.S. Hanson, Micah Stratton, Henry Alford, Karen Chee, and Martin Dockery. Fresh, funny and fearless, these talented humorists shine a light on our modern foibles, large and small. Please join us for a delightful evening that showcases the Library’s lighter side. 

Uptown at Night presents live storytelling and comedy on the Upper East Side; more information can be found at uptownatnight.org. Sydney LeBlanc, its founder and director, is a writer. Her books have been published by W.W. Norton and Rizzoli; her articles have appeared in the New York Times. She frequently reads her humorous short stories at Live from the Library.
