In Conversation: On Love of My Life: A Memoir

Original program date: Tue, Nov. 16, 2021
Original location: Null

In Love of My Life: A Memoir, Barbara Mailer Wasserman shares more of her incredible life. A classical pianist and Radcliffe College graduate who opted to work as a secretary rather than teach, she writes of skewering Randolph Churchill, smuggling fascist dictator Francisco Franco’s political prisoners across the French border in 1948, and hearing the news that her brother’s debut novel, The Naked and the Dead, had leapt to the top of bestseller lists overnight. This program was produced and moderated by Raymond Elman, founding editor-in-chief of Inspicio.
