“JUMPCUTS” recounts one woman’s journey through a 25 year long career in television. Phyllis Ward narrates how she managed to get into television during a time of glass ceilings and unequal opportunity for women, where she traveled for different projects, and what she as a producer, director, writer, learned about herself and the world.

From hiding in an East German closet with Jane Pauley, to negotiating cows with a Maasai laibon under the night sky in Africa, to quizzing John Glenn about his favorite view from space, Ward’s snippets from her life in television are often surprising and amusing.

Join us for a lively discussion which will be fun even if you haven’t read the book! There will be an open forum to ask questions. Come laugh with us.
