The Creative Process and Mental Health
Writers Guild Theater, Beverly Hills, 7:30 pm
Two of America's most beloved writers lead a discussion on a difficult issue confronting millions: depression and mental health. William Styron, author of Darkness Visible: A Memoir of Madness, and Art Buchwald, author of We'll Laugh Again, have both battled depression and will share their personal stories as well as explore ways the media can help overcome the taboos of mental illness. This is the inaugural event of the Mental Health Media Partnership, a new project of the Annenberg Schools at USC and Pennsylvania and the National Mental Health Campaign.
