ST. LOUIS - The Fontbonne University/KMOX Book Club welcomes Hal Holbrook, Emmy
and Tony-award winning actor and author of “Harold: The Boy Who Became Mark
Twain,” at its next book club event. The event will take place Wednesday, March
14, 6 – 7:30 p.m. at Chase Park Plaza in the Khorassan Ballroom.
The event is free, but reservations are required. Please register online. You can also call 314-444-1827 or email cwbrennan@cbs.com, leave a name and phone number and reference the "March" book club to reserve a spot today.
In “Harold,” Holbrook recounts his early life and the difficult path that led him to his iconic Broadway portrayal of Mark Twain. For the young boy who was abandoned by his parents, acting was a much-needed escape from reality. But with relief came fresh problems – Holbrook struggled to discover who he was apart from the characters he portrayed.
Please note the location has been changed. The discussion will still take place at the Chase Park Plaza, but will be held in the Khorassan Ballroom instead of the Lindell Ballroom.
