An Evening With Neil Gaiman
Location: Washington, D.C.
Friday, 8:00pm
"I make things up and write them down" is the way Neil Gaiman describes his varied art. Today, as one of the most celebrated, bestselling writers of our time, his popular and critically acclaimed works bend genres while reaching audiences of all ages. In his live event, "An Evening with Neil Gaiman", he will tell stories and read stories, answer questions, and, in his own words, "amaze, befuddle and generally delight. It will be fun and odd and not like any other evening with Neil Gaiman."
"He's heaped with sci-fi and horror prizes -- the Hugo, the Nebula, the Bram Stoker -- but also with children's prizes, the Newbery and more. He's a literary rock star who also takes the stage -- and mines our deep, dark veins." -- NPR's On Point With Tom Ashbrook

Jules Feiffer in Conversation with Neil Gaiman
Location: New York, NY
Thursday, 7:00pm
Everyone knows a Feiffer illustration when they see one: His characters leap across the page, each line belying humor and psychological insight.
Over Jules Feiffer's prolific 70-year career, his nimble and singular imagination has given us new perspectives as well as biting satires on politics, love, marriage and religion -- alternating with stories imbued with the playful anarchy of a child. Feiffer's varied output includes children's books (The Phantom Tollbooth and Bark, George), plays (Little Murders), movies (Carnal Knowledge and Popeye), comic strips (most notably in his Pulitzer Prize-winning Village Voice comic strip of 42 years) and graphic novels (The New York Times bestseller Kill My Mother).
Join him as he talks with author Neil Gaiman about his life, his work and his new book, Out of Line.
Jules Feiffer will sign copies of "Out of Line" after the event.
