Red Hen Press will celebrate its 22nd annual benefit at the Westin Hotel in Pasadena on October 30th with a champagne luncheon. The afternoon festivities will highlight Red Hen’s vibrant tradition in the literary community with performances from local school children, a silent auction, and readings by acclaimed authors Jill Bialosky, Rita Dove, and Alan Lightman. I’ll be helping to MC this event and it’s always fun!
