About the event
"This mesmeric memoir… holds a deeper purpose than solely chronicling the trauma of an abusive childhood… The results of that work are riveting… a beautifully wrought, hard-earned connection and an understanding that ‘the biggest gift you can give yourself is to forgive.’” — Publishers Weekly
Join us for a special book event with Emmy Award–winning filmmaker and author Gayle Kirschenbaum, celebrating her powerful memoir Bullied to Besties: A Daughter’s Journey to Forgiveness.
Gayle will be joined by her 102-year-old mother, Mildred Kirschenbaum—a beloved social media influencer—as they share their extraordinary journey from conflict to connection, and how forgiveness transformed their relationship.
Books will be available for purchase and signing.
