Laurie Notaro



Kelly and I wandered down to Powell's for our third Laurie Notaro reading.  She was funny as ever, in her hilariously charming over-sharing way. If you are looking for a bit of a pick-me-up any of her books of essays will do.

ps.  The gallery installation behind her was incredible.  A whole heap of author portraits done by two artists. I especially loved the style of Allison Bruns (the top one pictured here).  She was great at capturing expression.

More pictures of the exhibit.

  1. Very fun! The portraits behind her are a great touch. Is it odd to say that it seems like she would be fun to listen to?

  2. I've never heard of this author before. Maybe I'll check her out. I love the portrait of Kurt Vonnegut.
