A Q&A with Tadjedin follows the screening. Also in Los Angeles, in June, Harvardwood Music inaugurates its Storytellers series, bringing artists together to share their musical journey through conversation and/or song. Up first is a conversation with CHESTER FRENCH sensation D.A. Wallach ’04.

The New York City chapter sponsors a conversation with Brooke Hayward, author of the classic Hollywood memoir, Haywire, on May 4, and a performance by lyric tenor Ray Hornblower ’70 on June 2.
