Dec 14 Dutch Treat Carole Bufford sings, Harold Evans reminisces
Stunning Carole Bufford sings, and Harold Evans tells stories from his autobiography
SPEAKER
SIR HAROLD EVANS: discusses his acclaimed autobiography “MY PAPER CHASE: True Stories of Vanished Times.” Old-school news papering is recalled to life in this scintillating memoir by “…one of the great figures of modern journalism. For this reason, and because the kind of campaigning, reporting-based work he stood for is threatened as never before, his autobiography, written as he turned 80, is both gripping and timely. (“The Economist”) He edited London’s “Sunday Times” through a series of headline-making campaigns which have passed into the canon of press lore. A superb valedictory for a high, heroic style of journalism one hopes still has a future.

CAROLE J. BUFFORD, young Georgia-born singer and actress, has been impressing New York audiences with her performances at the Metropolitan Room’s MetroStar Talent Challenge; the 2009 and 2010 Mabel Mercer Cabaret Conventions; Donald Smith’s “Cabaret on Mondays” series at the National Arts Club; Town Hall’s “Broadway by the Year” series, and in her own solo cabaret show. Said Talkin’ Broadway, “For sheer talent matched with gutsy go-for-broke bravado, give us Carole Bufford … She is a find if ever there was one.”
