About the Event
Typerwriter Beach, set in Carmel-by-the-Sea and Hollywood, is an unforgettable story of the unlikely friendship between an Oscar-nominated screenwriter on the black-list and a young actress hoping to be Alfred Hitchcock's new star.
In graceful prose and with an intimate understanding of human nature, Meg Waite Clayton captures the joys and frustrations of being a writer, being a woman, being a star, and being in love. Typewriter Beach is the story of two women separated by generations—a tale of ideas and ideals, passion and persistence, creativity, politics, and family.
