Last night we had a very special evening on the Main Line: a book & film mega-event at the Bryn Mawr Film Institute, which was a cool old (1926) theater when I was a kid and now is a super hip and trendy non-profit cinema. It attracted 275 people. (see: http://www.brynmawrfilm.org/).>
The Trinity Club of Philadelphia hosted Paul and I. We signed about ninety copies of Run to the Roar—it was at a rate of a book a minute. We talked with dozens of old old friends, met a lot of new people and told a few colorful stories about steam room mishaps.
Then we went into the theater and watched a screening of Keep Eye on Ball, the must-see documentary about Hashim Khan. Afterwards, Beth Rasin, the film’s producer, regaled us with stories about traveling with the great old man in Pakistan back in 2005. (see: http://squashfilms.com/)
