Join award-winning actress Kelly Bishop for the launch of her captivating new memoir, The Third Gilmore Girl.
Full of witty insights, it is a warm, unapologetic and spirited story from a woman who has left indelible impressions on her audiences for decades — and has no plans on slowing down! Hear about the landmark achievements that defined Bishop’s storied career — from winning a Tony for her turn in the original Broadway cast of A Chorus Line, and her memorable performance as Jennifer Grey’s mother in Dirty Dancing, to the role that cemented her legacy: her iconic portrayal of matriarch Emily in the modern classic Gilmore Girls. She will share reflections on her remarkable life along with some of the greatest stories and biggest lessons she learned along the way. From her early transition from dance to drama, to marrying young to a compulsive gambler, to the losses and achievements she experienced (among them marching for women’s rights and losing her second husband to cancer), Bishop will share intimate and candid moments form her life, and give a peek into what the future holds.
