City Arts & Lectures in conversation with Adam Savage
Though he now splits his time between the United States and Italy, San Franciscans are fortunate to claim Pulitzer Prize-winning author Andrew Sean Greer as one of our own. His six works of fiction include the bestsellers The Story of a Marriage, The Confessions of Max Tivoli, Less (which earned him his Pulitzer), and now the long awaited followup Less is Lost. Called “wildly, painfully, funny” by David Sedaris, it catches up with the lovable Arthur Less as he and his pug travel across the country in a rusty camper van on a literary tour. Greer is the winner of the California Book Award, the New York Public Library Young Lions Award, and his work has appeared in Esquire, The Paris Review, The New Yorker, and many more.
Adam Savage is an industrial special effects designer and former co-host of The Discovery Channel’s Mythbusters with Jamie Hyneman. Today, Savage hosts and executive produces MythBusters Jr. as well as Savage Builds on the Science Channel. He also stars in and produces content for his website Tested.com and co-hosts the podcast Still Untitled: The Adam Savage Project.
