George Pelecanos, a DC native, is the author of twenty-two books set in and around Washington, DC... He was also a producer and Emmy-nominated writer for the acclaimed HBO dramatic series, The Wire.
In his latest book, Buster: A Dog, Pelecanos veers away from his typical crime genre, immersing readers in the challenging life and misadventures of a dog – narrated from Buster's unique perspective.
Johnny Temple is the publisher of “Buster” with his company Akashic Books. He is also a DC native and plays bass guitar in Soulside, Girls Against Boys, and Fake Names. He's putting together an unbelievable pick-up band to perform a short set of canine inspired music for this event. Besides himself, the band includes Brendan Canty (Messthetics, Fugazi), Pete Stahl (Scream), and Anthony Pirog.
Join us for this one of a kind event, as we delve into George Pelecanos's deep roots in DC, his writing, and film work with Mark Segraves of NBC4 leading the discussion.
