Books at Noon: Frank Bruni

Frank Bruni comes to Books at Noon to discuss his latest work, Where You Go Is Not Who You’ll Be: An Antidote to the College Admissions Mania.

Frank Bruni, an Op-Ed columnist for The New York Times since June 2011, joined the newspaper in 1995, and has been both a White House correspondent and the chief restaurant critic. In his columns, which appear every Sunday and Wednesday, he reflects on diverse topics: American politics, higher education, violence in football, gay rights and his own life as a gay man in a close-knit family. He is the author of two New York Times best-sellers: a 2009 memoir, Born Round; and a 2002 chronicle of George W. Bush’s initial presidential campaign, Ambling into History. 

Make the most of your lunch hour and come to The New York Public Library's Stephen A. Schwarzman Building on Wednesdays this fall for Books at Noon, a series of free midday conversations with acclaimed authors. Books at Noon events are standing room only and take place under the center arch in historic Astor Hall. An audience Q&A and book-signing will follow each half-hour program.
