Upcoming: Women and Late Night Television at The Paley Center for Media

It used to be that whenever ladies would congregate in groups of 5 or more, they were doing it to sell each other Avon products. But times are rapidly changing: now they're being invited to to gab about what it's like to work in late night TV. Of all things!

Moderator: Allison Silverman Late night talk shows have dominated water-cooler conversation recently, but most of the conversation has centered on the male ego. Bill Carter of the New York Times has pointed out that very few women make it inside the writing rooms for late-night television hosts, despite that women make up a larger proportion of their audience than men. This event will examine the legacy of women who have contributed to the late night genre, as well as the challenges of increasing representation. The event is cosponsored with the Writers Guild of America, East.
