John Baxter, Australian veteran Biographer and Filmmaker, will be speaking at The American Library in Paris this Wednesday Feb. 2nd at 19:30 as part of ALP's Evenings with an Author Series.
A prolific journalist, writer and filmmaker, Baxter has called Paris home since 1989. Combining two of his loves, he has written several biographies on filmmakers including: Stanley Kubrick, George Lucas, Federico Fellini, Stephen Spielberg, Woody Allen, Luis Bunuel amongst others. He's written short stories, novels, documentaries, television series, and currently co-directs the annual Paris Writer's Workshop. And this is only the beginning of a long list of illustrious achievements.
Below is a very short interview with John Baxter about his book "Immoveable Feast: A Paris Christmas".
And I can promise you, if I were in Paris on Wednesday, you would find me here!
