In The Groove: Fran Lebowitz talks Motown, Dolly Parton ahead of Fisher Theatre talk
Listen to “In the Groove” with Ryan Patrick Hooper weekdays from noon-3 p.m. ET on 101.9 WDET.
Social commentator, author, actor Fran Lebowitz.
In a cultural landscape crowded with pundits and talking heads, Fran Lebowitz remains one of the sharpest and most original social commentators around today.
She’ll bring that wit and insight for a talk and Q&A with the audience at the Fisher Theatre on Wednesday, October 22.
Ahead of her visit to Detroit, she stopped by In The Groove to chat about all things music—from her love of Motown and its staying power with a younger generation, to the beloved Dolly Parton and her time helping the punk icons New York Dolls get one of their first shows.
