Augusten Burroughs to Speak at Vassar!

After documenting his unusual childhood in the best-selling memoir Running with Scissors, Augusten Burroughs was hailed as one of the "25 Funniest People in America" by Entertainment Weekly. Burroughs, who will deliver The Alex Krieger '95 Memorial Lecture, is also the author of Sellevision, Dry, Magical Thinking, Possible Side Effects, and A Wolf at the Table. Running with Scissors, which spent more than four years on the New York Times Best Seller list, also spawned an Oscar-nominiated film. His writing has also appeared in magazines, literary journals, and newspapers around the world. His visit to Vassar will include a lecture, followed by a question and answer session and a book signing.
