You’re just in time for the secret password, and it’s not Swordfish! Tomorrow night (Tuesday, February 3rd) Danny Fingeroth will be interviewing the fascinating and fearless cartoonist and writer Jules Feiffer at YIVO at 7 PM (15 West 16th Street, between 5th and 6th.) $10 tickets are available at the door if you whisper the word “Explainers”. Actually, I think you can say it in a normal tone of voice, if you so choose. This is quite a deal, as advance tickets are $25.

Learn how an angst-ridden, impoverished Jewish guy from the Bronx became an acclaimed cartoonist, playwright, animator, screenwriter, novelist, and author of children’s books, earning himself a Pulitzer Prize, an Obie, and an Oscar along the way. With pop culture critic and historian Danny Fingeroth. Q&A to follow.
