About this event:
The hilarious Susie Essman who plays Susie Greene on HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, will discuss her book, What Would Susie Say? with celebrity profiler, Bill Zehme. Essman reveals how she went from an anxiety-ridden, struggling stand-up comic to being one of the funniest women on television. She goes behind the scenes of a life in comedy with her funny cohorts, including Joy Behar, Rodney Dangerfield, and, of course, Jeff Garlin and Larry David, while also providing very funny wisdom on a range of topics that she's highly unqualified to expound upon, including men, sports, hypochondria, and step-parenthood. Bill Zehme is the author of countless profiles for Esquire magazine and numerous bestselling books including the upcoming Carson the Magnificent: An Intimate Portrait.
