READING DEN | April 29th, 7pm | Free | @ftgreenebar Diane Botnick (@diane_botnick )joins Reading Den alongside Pardeep Toor, Josiah Hesse, & Lauren Camp. Come to this free event to connect with your literary community and hear some amazing readings! 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸 Diane Botnick was born and raised in Akron, Ohio, but always knew she’d wind up in New York City. Her first night in Greenwich Village she went to a double feature of Godard’s “Weekend” and Wiseman’s “Titicut Follies,” and her romance with the city began. For the next 30 years, Diane worked around, starting out in Italy assisting people like Jerome Robbins and Ellen Stewart with their contributions to the Spoleto Festival, then back in the City for the Dia Art Foundation, Isamu Noguchi, Great Performances at WNET, and finally, Workman Publishing. Along the way, she returned to school in pursuit of a Masters in Creative Writing at City College. Fulfilling all requirements but unable to pass the French exam (with a dictionary!), she was never awarded her diploma. However, the privilege of being mentored by Donald Barthelme and being appointed student editor of the literary magazine FICTION gave her far more than a diploma ever could. 📚📚📚📚 #reading #author #event #denver #readingden
