Harry Thomason to Discuss New Memoir at UCA

Conway Institute of Music

CONWAYโ€” The University of Central Arkansas will welcome film and television writer, director and producer Harry Thomason to campus Wednesday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m. for a talk and book signing on his new memoir, โ€œBrother Dog.โ€ The event will be held in the Snow Fine Arts Centerโ€™s Bridges/Larson Theatre.

Thomason, a native of Hampton, is best known for his work as executive producer for the television shows โ€œDesigning Womenโ€ and โ€œEvening Shade,โ€ and his documentaries about longtime friends Bill and Hillary Clinton.

โ€œHarry Thomasonโ€™s memoir takes us from the haunting stillness of a mid-century Arkansas night (with a serial killer on the loose) to the set of The Tonight Show (with a future president on the sax),โ€ said Jeffrey Toobin, CNN commentator and author, in a review. โ€œItโ€™s a sometimes-gentle, sometimes-wild ride through the century, with the good-hearted Coach Thomason as a guide.โ€

This event is free and open to the public. Tickets are not required.
