This Other Cinema special event brings together Laura Albert, the author of the best-selling JT LeRoy books Sarah, The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, and Harold’s End and the subject of Jeff Feuerzeig’s acclaimed 2016 feature-length documentary AUTHOR: THE JT LEROY STORY, with Lucas Celler, award-winning documentary film editor, director, photographer, and motion designer of SHIRKERS and CLAYDREAM, who served as assistant editor and associate producer of AUTHOR. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the release of AUTHOR, Laura and Lucas will screen the first half-hour of this film and discuss its genesis, making, and reception as well as its impact on their lives and careers. Laura will also read from her soon-to-be-published memoir, and she and Lucas will take questions from the audience.
