#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Four rising writerly stars bring their performance A-game to this magnificent literary showdown. In a thrilling blend of page and stage, Literary Death Match – co-created and hosted by Adrian Todd Zuniga – asks four writers to read their most entertaining work to the crowd. But this is no genteel salon – after each writer performs, they'll be subject to the rapier wit of three all-star judges, and only one contestant will be crowned the Literary Death Match winner. Join this year's plucky writers – Myles McGuire, Siang Lu, Shirley Le and Benjamin Stevenson – alongside judges Gabrielle Zevin, Deni Todorovic and Jess Ho for a night of brilliance, barbs and belly laughs.
#Artist
Gabrielle Zevin
Gabrielle Zevin is the internationally bestselling and critically acclaimed author of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry; the prizewinning children's book, Elsewhere; and several other novels. Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is being developed into a feature film by Temple Hill and Paramount Studios, and the movie version of A.J. Fikry, for which Zevin wrote the adaptation, is currently in production in Massachusetts. Zevin was born in New York and is the daughter of a Korean mom and an Eastern European Jewish dad, who both spent their careers working in computers. Her dad wanted her to work in computers, too, and this book is probably as close as she will ever come. She is a screenwriter, an occasional critic and a graduate of Harvard University. Zevin currently splits her time between Los Angeles and Stardew Valley, where she owns a farm on a once rocky plot of land.
