Dr. Anthony Fauci
On Call
Sunday, Nov. 3,
7:30 p. m.
Dr. Anthony
Fauci became a world
figure during the
COVID-19 in his
role as director of the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases. But he also played a crucial role
in researching FFIV and bringing AIDS
into sympathetic public view and his
leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS,
West Nile, and anthrax crises.
His memoir reaches back to his
boyhood in Brooklyn, New York, and
carries through decades of caring for
critically ill patients, navigating the
whirlpools of Washington politics, and
behind-the-scenes advising and negotiating
with seven presidents on key issues from
global AIDS relief to infectious disease
preparedness at home.
Fauci also served as the Chief
Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden
in 2021 and 2022 when he received the
Presidential Medal of Freedom.

S2 | A SPECIAL SECTION
author talks & signings
Richards will be in conversation
with Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Entertainment Editor Rodney Flo and
will take questions from the audience as
he discusses his memoir “Entrances and
Exits.”
The three-time Emmy winner, beloved
for starring as Cosmo Kramer on the
groundbreaking television series “Seinfeld,”
serves up a candid, insightful, humorous,
and complex memoir about his life and
storied career with Jerry Seinfeld, Larry
David, Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-
Dreyfus, and other celebrated figures in
show business.
Richards opens the door to the
evolution of the iconic character who
brought the kavorka to “Seinfeld” and
shares the real-life insecurities and
successes he experienced creating one of
television’s most memorable characters,
and the ways the two are forever
intertwined on and offscreen.
Adam Nimoy,
The Most Human:
Reconciling with
My Father,
Leonard Nimoy
Sunday, Nov. 10,
1 p.m.
Adam Nimoy will
be in conversation
with author and media personality Nadia
Bilchik to discuss his memoir, “ The Most
PFuman: Reconciling with My Father,
Leonard Nimoy.” There will also be an
opportunity for audience questions.
While the tabloids and fan publications
portrayed the Nimoys as a “close family,”
to his son, Leonard Nimoy was a total
stranger. The actor was as inscrutable as
the iconic half-Vulcan science officer he
portrayed on Star Trek, even to those close
to him.
Now, his son’s memoir explores their
complicated relationship and how it
informed his views on marriage, parenting,
and later, sobriety.
Mitch Albom, The
Little Liar
Monday, Nov. 11,
7:30 p. m.
Mitch Albom
returns with a
powerful novel of hope
and forgiveness that
moves from a coastal
Greek city during WWII to America
in the golden age of FFollywood, as the
intertwined lives of three young survivors
are forever changed by the perils of
deception and the grace of redemption.
Eleven-year-old Nico Krispis has never
told a lie. His schoolmate, Fannie, loves
him because of it. Nico’s older brother
Sebastian resents him for both these facts.
When their young lives are torn apart
during the war, it will take them decades
to find each other again.
The evening will begin with
Kristallnacht Commemoration with
prayers by Rabbi Brian Glusman.

The gripping true story of how Tibon,
along with his wife and their two young

Nahal Oz on Oct. 7, 2023, by Tibon’s own
father—a tale of survival that also reveals
the deep tensions and systemic failures that
led to FFamas’s attacks that day.
Tobiin describes his family’s ordeal
alongside the histories of the place they call
home and the systems of power that have
kept them and their neighbors in Gaza in
harm’s way for decades.
