Maureen Dowd and Todd Purdum | March 20, 2025

www.writersblocpresents.com Writers Guild Theater, Beverly Hills, CA Video: Karl Sonnenberg We love Maureen Dowd’s weekly takedowns and roundups of the personalities who have defined the news cycle. We have loved her as a political commentator, a cultural observer, and more important, as a social critic of our time. She’s not just about politics. Her new book Notorious features some of her great interviews with those who not only define the news, but visionaries who have created our American cultural identity. They’re chatty, funny, and of course deeply absorbing profiles of our most, well, notorious legends, moguls, tech titans, and creatives. What a range: Paul Newman; Idris Elba; Tina Fey; Elon Musk; Jane Fonda; Larry David; Mel Brooks. Let politics go for an evening and enjoy one of America’s great journalists as she explores touchstones in our culture, who have become some of the most notorious individuals in the world. In conversation with Todd Purdum. Todd Purdum has covered numerous beats for the New York Times, including the White House. He is a senior writer at Politico, a contributing editor covering politics at Vanity Fair, and was until recently a staff writer at The Atlantic. He’s also an author, and teaches journalism at USC’s Annenberg School for Communications and Journalism. His new book, Desi Arnaz: The Man Who Invented Television, will be released in June.
