Sunday June 4th
Book launch Guinevere Turner's "When the World Didn't End"
2:00pm - 5:00pm
Memoir of Turner's childhood growing up with the infamous Lyman Family cult-and the complicated and unexpected pain of leaving the only home she'd ever known. Turner is a writer, director and actor who has been working in film and TV since her 1994 debut film Go Fish, which she wrote, produced and starred in. Women & Children First bookstore will be selling copies of the book. Free event with DJ Lora spinning, plus food and cash bar. RSVP at link.
Turner teamed up with director Mary Harron to write the films American Psycho, The Notorious Bettie Page and the 2019 film Charlie Says. She was a writer and story editor on Showtime's The L Word, and she played the recurring character Gabby Deveaux on that show. She has written and directed seven short films, two of which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
She can be seen in film roles that include The Watermelon Woman, Chasing Amy, American Psycho and The L Word. Her latest screenplay, Charlie Says, was directed by Mary Harron and released in May of 2019. Guinevere has taught screenwriting at Sarah Lawrence College, Columbia University, University of Georgia, UCLA and NYU. She published an essay in The New Yorker in April of 2019, and has expanded on that essay in a memoir to be published by Penguin Random House in May of 2023.
