"Lot Six is a deeply moving, completely riveting tour de force."
-Heidi Schreck, author of What the Constitution Means to Me and finalist for the Pulitzer Prize of Drama.
An award-winning American playwright and author, David Adjmi has been called "virtuosic" by The New York Times, and named one of the Top Ten in Culture by The New Yorker in 2011. His plays have been produced and developed by the Royal Shakespeare Company, Soho Rep., A.R.T, Yale Rep, Lincoln Center Theater, Steppenwolf Theatre, and Second Stage Theater.
David Adjmi's debut memoir, Lot Six was selected as one of the Best Books of Summer 2020 by the Chicago Tribune and Most Anticipated Books of 2020 by Playbill.
"One of the great American memoirs, a heartbreaking, hilarious story of what it means to make things up, including yourself. A wild tale of lack and lies, galling humiliations and majestic reinventions, this touching, coruscating joy of a book is an answer to that perennial question: how should a person be?”- Olivia Laing, author of Crudo
David Adjmi speaks with Alisa Solomon, Director of the Arts and Culture concentration at Columbia College (Journalism, M.A Program), and delves into his grandly entertaining debut memoir that poses the question, how do human beings create themselves and how do artists make their lives into art?
