Lunch with an Author

The monthly Lunch With An Author Literary Series was created to foster connections among like-minded literary friends in an intimate setting. As the event programmer, host, and interviewer, I’ve cultivated a vibrant community where friendships and book discussions thrive. After two successful years at El Encanto, Santa Barbara, I'm seeking a new venue for the 2025 Literary Series.

You can also find this fabulous program at The California Club, Los Angeles. You will need to be a member of The California Club or a friend of a member to attend.
