Fran Lebowitz started her career writing a column for Andy Warhol’s Interview Magazine, Mademoiselle and others. She published two very funny collections of her essays, "Metropolitan Life" in 1978 and "Social Studies" in 1981. These days, is a professional talker more than a writer. She is a sardonic wit, cut from a similar cloth as Dorothy Parker … minus the martinis. An unapologetic Manhattanite, she does have a little Brooklyn in her background. And she is going to be appearing on stage here at Kings Theatre on October 21st, where she will be interviewed by another notable New Yorker.
