Tom Hanks in Conversation
VENUE CHANGE: This event will now take place at Keller Auditorium.
Literary Arts presents a special event with legendary actor, filmmaker, and writer Tom Hanks, in conversation about his new novel The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece. Tom Hanks will be joined in conversation with novelist and screenwriter Jon Raymond.
About Tom Hanks:
Tom Hanks has won Academy Awards for best actor for Philadelphia and Forrest Gump. He has starred in, among many other films, Big, Sleepless in Seattle, Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan, The Green Mile, Cast Away, Catch Me If You Can, Captain Phillips, Bridge of Spies, Sully, Toy Story, The Post, and It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, Vanity Fair, and The New Yorker. He is also the author of a best-selling collection of stories, Uncommon Type.
About the book:
The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece is a novel about the making of a star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film…and the humble comic books that inspired it. Funny, touching, and wonderfully thought-provoking, while also capturing the changes in America and American culture since World War II.
Support for this event is provided by Janet Hoffman and Associates.
Tickets in price level 1 ($90 + fees) include a copy of The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece (to be received at event).
